June update!

I wrote a couple weeks ago but I forgot to post it. That was a waist of time. I have done a lot in the last couple weeks.
I had my two baby showers. They were great. We were gifted some awesome items and it was so fun putting everything away. I am in the process of writing my thank you cards. It is taking a long time I have at least 60 notes to write. During the shower for Joe's family Joe had a diaper party for all the guys. We are stocked up for diapers and wipes for a while. We found a place in our tiny house to store them all. I was worried about that but we did it. Now I just have to get ready to wash her clothes. I have one more shower that my boss is planning. That is next weekend.
We had to get the babies room walls fixed. There were a couple holes that were in them. We are fortunate enough to have a friend that helped us. He has been coming over for the last couple weeks and patching them for us. Now they are done and it is ready to paint. I am starting to paint today. I got permission from the doctor so I will probably do most of it. I don't want it to get messed up and I would be afraid for Joe to try to paint it. He will be doing other things around the house that I can't do anyways. So I am excited to get the room done and post pics.
We got both of the gardens put in the flower garden around the house and Joe's vegetable garden. Joe did all of this. It looks nice around the house and I wanted it done before the baby came. I knew if it did not get done now it never would. Joe also got our air conditioner in. We have only used it a couple times but I am so glad we got it.
We had a doctor appointment which is every two weeks now. It was just a regular OB check. Everything is great. We had to get another ultrasound though. We were not expecting it. They wanted to check one last time if the placenta was in the right spot. Which it was. It was good to see that everything was good and we got to get more pics of our baby girl. We have another appointment on the 10th. I am just dealing with the kicks in the ribs at this point. My ribs hurt so bad but I just keep telling myself that I am happy she is active and I know she is ok.
I feel like I have so much to do but my hours will be lowering at work soon so I will have a lot oftime on my hands. I am for sure in the nesting mode so I will have to tell myself to sit down every once in a while.
