Checking Things Off The List!

This Wednesday will be 18 weeks for us - so hard to believe how quickly the time is flying by. We've been hard at work getting things organized and starting to make all our lists... December will be here before we know it.

A major to-do that is almost checked off our list is that we've found a new place to live! A spacious, modern townhouse in Brookhaven, a fun area about 5 miles from where we are right now. It even has a nice fenced-in yard for Edward.  We should have everything signed in the next day or two, and then move prep begins in earnest. We are moving on Friday, August 31st, which gives us about 6 weeks to pack and say goodbye to Midtown. Here is a photo of the front (ours is the one on the left):


We also made great progress yesterday and ordered our baby furniture! Went to a great place called Georgia Baby (www.georgiababy.com) and got two cribs and a nice big dresser:


Other than that, we've been busy with some pre-parenting classes (CPR and Baby Essentials classes will come soon), making appointments to update legal stuff, and generally getting ourselves ready, mentally and otherwise.

Our surrogate is doing very well. She had a check up last week and is feeling great, and the doctor is very happy with her (good weight gain, normal blood pressure, etc). The next big ultrasound will be towards the end of next week, so we'll be sure to post then!
