Our Cottage

We signed the lease and got the keys to the cottage this morning! Here are a few pictures I took. The ceilings are a little low and hubby will definitely have to duck at the doorways but it has a lot of character. We get our temporary furniture and early shipment next Wednesday. We are excited to sit out in our garden and for fires in the winter. I will try to get some pictures of the upstairs. We call it the funhouse with low doorways, slanted ceilings and beams everywhere. We are excited to make it our home!










Of course there is baby news too. We were able to get into a birthing class on Monday morning so it will be nice to get that done before he arrives. I had an exciting appointment yesterday. While the doctor was listening for the heartbeat he thought he heard his heartrate lowering so he wanted to monitor it for a while. So I went up to the labor and delivery room and got hooked up to everything while he monitored. Everything looked good though and I was really happy that he was extra cautious with me. We got another sonogram and everything looked good there too. He was guessing the baby is already weighing 6 1/2 pounds but wouldn't give me an idea when he would make his arrival. While I was laying there hooked up to everything it made it seem so much more real to us. Are we really ready for this?? Only 3 weeks till the due date!!
