We started this last trimester off with a bang! We decided last minute to have a yard sale to get rid of a lot of "stuff" before Brody Jett arrives. We didn't have much, but knew we needed to get it done before Christmas or we never would. We weren't expecting a huge crowd.. However, we sold everything but just a box full! We ended up making $160 bucks, which was great considering the amount we had.. BUT, this is the awesome part! While we were cleaning out the garage to prepare for the yard sale, we decided it was time to get rid of our 750 CD collection since they were just sitting there (and were already on our iTunes). So, while I was out doing the yard sale, Brent was on the computer putting the names of ALL 750 albums on Craigslist.. We have only used Craigslist once to sale our TV, but we decided this wouldn't hurt. Within 2 hours, a man who owns a Media Store wanted to come buy the collection of CD's TODAY for $420 bucks.. WOW! So, we had a very successful day.. Got rid of nothing by JUNK and made $580.. sounds like a productive way to start this trimester to me! We are now ready to paint the room and get everything in order.. I am so excited about this next coming month with one of my bff's wedding and my baby shower.. I am ready to TACKLE this last trimester and meet my precious little boy!
BabyCenter Update: By this week, your baby weighs two and a quarter pounds and measures 14.8 inches from the top of his head to his heels. He can blink her eyes, which now sport lashes. With his eyesight developing, he may be able to see the light that filters in through your womb. He's also developing billions of neurons in her brain and adding more body fat in preparation for life in the outside world.
