So yesterday was the big day !!! New carpet... FINALLY.
Well the day did not start out so great! Tuesday night we took down everything, moved furniture around and unplugged all the electronics. We were TOLD that someone would be calling us in the morining to give us a heads up on what time they would be here - WELL... at 11 - no one had called - so I told Dustin to call Empire and see where they were. Well - they make up some excuses and say that we have been pushed to Thursday and they won't be here. WELL.. This was NOT happening. As you can imagine I was just a tad mad -- but, I decided to let Dustin handle it - I was in the middle of my Dr.'s appointment anyway. So - after talking to managers and so on - we had a group of installers coming out in an hour from then! I was much happier. So they came around 2ish - and got straight to work. All I can say is EWWWWWW...... our old carpet was SO gross.. and REALLY thin. I knew it was cheap builder carpet, but .. I thought it was a little better then what was coming up. They then laid our new carpet which is so thick and soft ! I LOVE it! It feels so good on your feet - so comfy! We talked and talked about this purchase and we knew it was something big to do before Reagan is here, but we are so glad that we did. I'm sure Reagan will be happy with it too!!! ; )
Speaking of - Wednesday was also a Dr. appointment - which went fine. It was just a normal check up make sure she was moving good and check her heartbeat. They had a hard time finding it this time - although, suprisingly I was not flipping out when they had a hard time - I feel her move all the time and she was just moving around on the drive down!! I knew everything was OK - but it was a little relief when they found it. It was between 130-140 .. nice good strong heartbeat!!! My dr. just said she was moving around so much --and that she was an active little girl! So that was good. They gave me some more reading material on delievery and all my options, they gave me some papers on filling on a birth plan - I don't know how much they really go by that anway - but I'll fill it out if they want me too.
After my appointment I went over and saw mom and the hospital! We went and had lunch with some of the girls she works with -- its so nice to see everyone , I'm so glad that she gets to work with such great people. They are all so nice and funny!!!
After lunch I came home where the installer were on the way here.... from here on I guess the story starts at the beginning of this post !!!
Overall it was a good day - Dr. appoinment went well and the carpet is in !!!!! So thats all the matters !!!! Will update again soon -- next appointment in Monday the 30th -this will be another ultrasound and measure of how big she is !!!!

Dustin & Katie,
ReplyDeleteI am so happy that I have a new way of talking with you! Wish also you would sign up for Skype so we could talk to you live! Grandma Cookie is doing well. I just took her for a DQ and you know how she likes that. She is sooo excited about coming and seeing all of you!
It is raining here but Spring is around the corner. We have daffolils blooming. My first Winter in IL was so brutal after 20 years being in the south. I think it was even worse for me given that I do outside sales. Not like your only stress of getting to work and getting home. I had to be out in it all day. My high heels did not make very good snow shoes either. Needless to say I am ready for nice weather!!!!
Glad to hear that you love your carpeting. I can't wait to see it. You are right, Reagan will need a soft place to play.
Katie are you going to post Ultrasound pictures on this as well? I was reading how anxious you are about Reagan's arrival. Made me think of when Dustin was due and how I tried walking, cleaning etc... to make him hurry up. However, my handsome son came when he was ready! Reagan will too! My advice is not to miss this opportunity of getting pampered the rest of your pregnacy. Really both of you should enjoy as much R&R as you can get!
Will you post pictures of the nursery? I bet it is darling. Grandma Cookie and I have bought Reagan little things along the way too.
I love ya all bunches and bunches!!! I have to get back to gathering tax information now-Hate it!
Thanks for the update!Miss you Boo....
Mom
