Milestones, measurements and moving

Lots going on in the Stanley household!

Milestones
This Wednesday I will be 35 weeks pregnant and therefore officially done with bedrest. Praise God that He has kept this little one safe inside for so long! I'm looking forward to being able to get out more, but also realizing how out of shape I am from being inactive for 2.5 months. Becky will still be helping me next week as I try to get back out and about with the kids (Clayton can definitely outrun me at this point!) My c-section is scheduled for September 4th - so only a little over 3 weeks to go until we meet our new little man!

Measurements
I "graduated" from seeing the perinatologist (high-risk specialist) this morning. Baby was less than cooperative to have all of his measurements taken, but with patience the Dr. got what she needed. He looks healthy and is measuring right at the 50th percentile at 5 lbs. 11 oz.

Moving
And this afternoon Mike and I received final paperwork that our offer on a new home has been accepted. We'll be staying in Menomonee Falls, just about 10 minutes further south than we are right now. Brooke is very excited for her new pink room! The plan is to close on the new house at the end of September and then list our current home the first week of October. It was just too much to think about trying to do everything simultaneously and have a new baby too!
