More Renovations!

So...I've been really bad about the blogging lately. We've been so busy with the house on the weekends, and on weeknights, I'm usually so beat that I don't feel like writing! In house news, Dad finished the hardwood floors two weekends ago. Thank you, Dad!! Outside of that, we have been doing a lot of painting. We are trying so hard to get it ready to move in! We have had so much help from Ryan's parents and brother. THANK YOU so much Roger, Louise and Bryan!! We would not be able to move in until after the baby is born if it weren't for your help..... Thanks to Lacy, too, for your help scraping doors :) Opa also made some amazing shelves for our pantry...thank you thank you Opa!

Now here are some pictures to sum up what's been going on since I last blogged:

Rog replacing receptacles
Dad putting on a coat of poly
The baby's room with a coat of primer
The office/study
Twins hard at work in the office
Painting in the baby's room
Painting trim in the baby's room

That's the color! Here's the bedding we finally decided on:
As of tomorrow, I will be 29 weeks along! The (still unnamed) baby moves around allll the time. He kicks and rolls all day! I can't wait to get into our house and finally set up his room. Here is the 29 weeks info:
Your baby now weighs about 2 1/2 pounds (like a butternut squash) and is a tad over 15 inches long from head to heel. His muscles and lungs are continuing to mature, and his head is growing bigger to make room for his developing brain. To meet his increasing nutritional demands, you'll need plenty of protein, vitamins C, folic acid, and iron. And because his bones are soaking up lots of calcium, be sure to drink your milk (or find another good source of calcium, such as cheese, yogurt, or enriched orange juice). This trimester, about 250 milligrams of calcium are deposited in your baby's hardening skeleton each day.

I am off to bed now! I was going to finish up some internet Christmas shopping but this took too long. There's always tomorrow, I guess.......goodnight!
