Week 27 Progress Report

We've been pretty busy this July, so we haven't had too much time to update the site. Well actually, I could've updated it last weekend but we had a wedding to go to on the 21st and I spent all day Sunday (22nd) reading Harry Potter. Here is a photo of Marshall and I on my 27th birthday and Marshall's 27th week in my belly.

Here are some photos of us with our friends at Amanda and Todd's Wedding. It was really great getting to see everyone!

Thankfully, there is nothing dreadful to report as we move into the Third Trimester. :-) This week's doctor visit was pretty normal. The baby is measuring normal, I've started gaining a couple of pounds (finally), my Glucose Test came back with a great score (103) and my blood pressure was normal (120 over 80). After our August 22nd prenatal visit, we'll be seeing the doctor every two weeks.

We've made some improvements to Marshall's room. The weekend after the fourth of July, Chris' family came and helped us put up wainscotting in the bedroom. Without Chris' brother's help, it would not have turned out as great as it did. Thanks Dave!

While the guys were working, the rest of us got to relax in the backyard...

While Chris was painting the room I did some painting of my own. Chris' parents gave us the cutest bookcase to put in Marshall's room. Here is a little "before" and "after" picture of it. After a few weeks of hard work, Chris did a really marvelous job of painting. I can't wait to get the furniture and start decorating!!
