Belly Shots

As I have mentioned before I am not too big into taking pictures. I use to LOVE being in pictures...but since my jaw surgery I have shyed away. There aren't that many pictures of my preggo belly because of this reason...I figured I should post a few any way.

This us over Thanksgiving...let's see that means I was 22 weeks pregnant.

This is sometime in December. I don't remember when... sorry :(

Baby Cradle

Jon's dad makes a craddle for each of his kids when they get pregnant. His parents told us that they were going to bring it out when they came to visit for Christmas.

Harvest was so crazy for them this year that he never had a chance to put it together. So they brought the pieces with them. Which was actually a lot of fun because Jon, Lars, and Richard put it together together. It was fun to watch them all work together on the cradle.

Poor Richard spent some hours of his 'vacation' in our basement staining and varnishing the cradle. I'm sure he didn't mind too much..being that he was probably high as a kite down there ;)

(27 weeks pregnant)

Lots of Updates

So it's been alomst a month since my last post so I'm sure I have A LOT to share..... Let's see...where to start....

I should start by telling you (which most of you probably know) Jon gave me a present to tell me the sex of the babies.... He wrote a beautiful letter to the babies and gave me (them) shirts and bibs to tell me what we are having.



Look closely....can you see what the letter says?

Squint those eyes....

The shirts and bibs had little motorcycles on them...

We are so excited to be having little baby boys! Of course we would be happy either way...but we always said we hoped we would have a boy first. We are having TWO! YEAH :)

Room Changing Update

We have been busy today. I haven't cleaned cleaned yet, but I figured I would share with you what we have done so far. A couple of weeks ago I posted pictures of room rearranging...here are some more.

Dining Room
This room is totally done. Well done until we start getting baby stuff. I think I shared earlier that we decided to sell our antque dining room furniture :(. We sold it so we could make some more room in our dining room. We are always down stairs and have a large ottoman in the living room...which gives the babies limited floor room. I wanted to have the dining room for half eating and half floor time for the babies.
We bought a new table and hutch a few months ago. Just last weekend I went out and bought the rug for floor time and two cheapo black shelves. I think it looks really good. The shelves will be used for baskets and baby stuff...whatever that might be. Right now the carpet has Christmas presents and wrapping paper on it...waiting for me to finish wrapping and put everything away.

Kitchen

We finished the kitchen a long time ago but never took pictures to put up. I have already gone into detail about what we did here...so just take a look at the final product.

Guest Bedroom

We took a lot of the furniture from the office and added it into the guest bedroom. We finally finished rearranging this room and it's ready for guests :)

I would show you a picture of our room too, as there have been changes there also, but the sheets are in the dryer and it just doesn't feel right to take a picture of a disheveled room :)

The office...I'm sorry NURSERY is the last room to be worked on. It is basically empty now. We have some random things on the floor that we need to go through and we still need to empty the wall cubbies.

We worked really hard today and come 4:30 I said my belly was hungry and I wanted to sit. Jon said so you're hungry...what are you hungry for? I said I'm not hungry my belly is. He said, if your belly is hungry than you are hungry. I said...no..I have no desire to eat right now...but my belly is rumbling, so I assume I should eat....it was a pretty funny conversation. :)
