First Post!

Well - here we are - Bartlett's in NJ. We are two so far... well... two and three quarters at least.... Just spent a wonderful week with Brian's parents. They were visiting for the week to help get us ready for Baby Bartlett!  It was such a great week and so productive. We're so thankful for their hard work, it really helped to get us ready. Nursery painted, furniture put together, closet redone... and the boys built the book ledges I've been longing for!  Plus - Susan and I spent a day in our kitchen and re-organized everything and spent some time creating a pantry for all the canned goods. We have room in the kitchen now for baby bottles and all the gear that comes with baby...

I've been feeling pretty good... we had a dr's appointment last week. It was nice to be able to share that with Susan and Larry - the dr's was great because even though we weren't scheduled for one - they put us in the ultrasound room so they could see the baby. AND! We found out that the baby had flipped, hooray for no more breech baby!  It's been pretty weird ever since though because I'm feeling kicks above the belly button line which I haven't felt before..... kicks in the ribs and upwards, all very new sensations!

Brian's been working his tail off to help get the house ready too.... he finished up the hard work he and Mom and Dad Sperber had done on the deck during Octoberblizzard (that was a crazy day!).... but the deck looks glorious!

Boone and Buddy are just wandering around wondering what exactly is going on... I'm not sure they know what they're in for.. :) Buddy's yearly vet appointment went well though.... some minor abnormalities in his urinalysis but follow up tests show that all is well.

:) We're looking forward to winding down projects.... also... thanksgiving next week! Looking forward to more quality time with friends and family!!!  So long for now!
