23 Weeks

So close, but yet so far away. 17 weeks to go.  

The Basement is Finished

Well, it took about three times longer and three times the price, 

but we have our basement finished. Jared and I couldn't be happier 

with the outcome.  Jared did most of the handy work himself- 

he even built the barn door!

Before Pictures:

Sub-flooring was then screwed down to each pieces of plywood.

Finished sub-flooring.

Down go the floors.

Floors completely finished.

After the floor was down, we put up the beat board,
painted the stairs, installed the electronics and all the hardware.

I found this bedding at Gap and couldn't resist picking it up.
 It was 45% off!

Profile of baby. We may be biased, but this just might be the cutest baby ever!

Baby's foot with 5 little toes.  

And here is the money shot!!  
Pretend the baby is sitting on a glass table and you are looking 
up under the table.  Legs are on the top and bottom and his "goods"
 are in the middle. Don't mistake his top leg for something else like some people have :)
