Construction, Days 2 - 19 - The Baby's Room, now with furniture!

So, after the first day, things slowed down a bit on construction. The room is fully wainscoted, and we are working on getting the final pieces to the base and the chair rail in, as well as painting. Maybe this will be the weekend. We are getting close to the deadline (38 days to due date for those of you counting).

We have succeeded in a first name for our darling daughter - Kendall. Middle name still as yet to be determined. As you can see in the pictures below, Margaret has been hitting the crafts since she is not allowed construction work these days. They are turning out nicely, if I may say so myself.

So check out the progress on the room. Hopefully more to come in the next week or so.

Construction, Day 1

Baby's room construction, Day 1. We have a wall of wainscotting, and a splotch of paint!

The Baby's Room

So, for those of you who have been asking how the baby's room is going, I am sending out these updated pictures. These were taken earlier today, sorry they are a little dark. Clearly, not much progress has been made, and yes, that TV from 1984 is sitting on a mini-fridge. And, yes, that is my home office. I do have to say, even with all the junk left in this room, it is a vast improvement from where it was. (And, yes, I am embarrased by what a mess this room is in - the rest of the condo is clean, I swear!)

We are planning to paint and wainscott the room this weekend. Crib and dresser are already in, just waiting for us to be ready to pick them up. Goal is to have this room ready to roll by 8/20.

Stay tuned for actual progress on Sprout's new room.

30 Week Ultasound

I'm a little late posting this (we are now 31 weeks, almost 32) but here are the photos from the latest ultrasound. Everything is looking good. Sprout is head down and ready to roll, in 8 more weeks. It was confirmed again, she is defintely all girl, and not shy. Mom is still feeling great! Hope it stays this way until the end.

Here is one picture, and if you are interested in the rest, check them out here. She is pretty squished at this point, so she looks very strange.
