Anyway... Some news! We think we've found our new home in Waterloo!
We had a relocation specialist do some searching for homes for us and yesterday we met up with her and saw about 7 or 8 different houses/townhomes in Waterloo yesterday. There were about 3 total that we liked but we narrowed it down to the one pictured above. We called the owner after dinner last night after hubby and I talked it over and then faxed our rental application today, now just waiting to hear from her! It's a really nice 3 bedroom 2.5 bath home with a nice kitchen and even an extra room that we're going to use for our computers. What I really like about it is that it's kind of a split level so there's no more than maybe 8 stairs going in any direction to any level. We have too many stairs in our current home and they're laminate and very slippery so I always ask hubby to take Nathan up and down them. I slipped on them in early pregnancy and really bruised my bum and I don't want that to happen while I'm carrying Nathan!
I've been wanting to send out birth announcements but since we're going to be moving soon I thought I would wait until we're sure that we got the house so then I can include our new address.
Everything else is good here. My in-laws left last night so we're on our own now! Hubby is going back to work tomorrow but he might only work half days if it turns out I need some extra help with Nathan. I'm feeling almost 100% since having Nathan, I'm happy my recovery has been so quick. I am experiencing a lot of breathlessness and my diaphragm hurts when I try to take deep breaths. I'm hoping it's just from the pushing I had to do to birth Nathan. My feet/legs are still balloons but it's so hard to find time to put them up. I've taken a few water pills to help flush the extra fluid away but haven't taken many so haven't noticed too much of a difference yet. My hands are still pretty numb but the arm pain is completely gone! YAY!
Nathan is doing great! He's up to almost 3.5oz. of formula every 2 or 3 hours. We have tummy time a few times a day. He's still sleeping most of the time but usually twice a day he'll be awake for a good hour or two just observing and taking in everything around him. He seems so intelligent already! His eyes are so big and always moving back and forth watching everything! His diaper rash is getting better too.
More later, hope everyone is good!
Nice house!
ReplyDeleteI hear you about the stairs! I had a bad fall one time down my stairs.
Glad you hear you are feeling better. It took me awhile to feel better! I had 3 tears to heal from.
I am sure you can see small differences in Nathan every day, I know I can in Viktor. I swear some mornings when I pick him up he feels heavier!
