32 Weeks & tackling MAJOR Renovations...

Just a quick update after our 32 week check up today! Imke is growing like mad & is healthy and all is well except that she is in the Frank Breech position at the moment..... That means she is lying with her head at my boobs and her legs are flexed at the hip and extended at the knees (with feet near her ears).

Hopefully she turns soon!!!

Our hospital pre-admission stuff is booked & sorted - now just have to wait for her to decide how & when she wants to come face to face with mommy & daddy!

I am doing well - except for heartburn & sleeping issues I am actually doing very well!

On another note - how crazy are we??? We were thinking of moving but after looking around at houses and not finding anything we liked we decided to stay where we are for the next 5 - 7 years. But we need some work done & carpets etc etc etc.... We are starting demolition on Monday.................................. We have about 6 or 7 weeks to get it done (my dad is doing all the work so I can bend his ear if they dawdle too much LOL!!). We are cutting it very fine but our house will be PERFECT after all this is done! Can't wait for the finished product he he he :-)
