Basement

Jami and I have decided to start finishing the basement because we are going to make the current spare bedroom the babies room and we want to have a spare bedroom once the baby comes. So I created a rough outline of how we are going to finish it. Jami and I also want everyone to know that if you want to get us a Christmas present we would love Home Depot Gift cards to help fund the project. We are going to start HOPEFULLY before Thanksgiving weekend and then HOPEFULLY get the whole basement framed and sheet rocked by New Years then we will go ahead and finish the bedroom and the bathroom HOPEFULLY before school starts again so that if someone comes and stays with us they can have their own area.

Wow!

Our first ultrasound was an incredible experience. It is hard to believe that our baby is only 2 inches long and was moving and dancing around during the entire ultrasound. This really helped to make the pregnancy feel real. With as few symptoms as I have had, it was great to know that everything is going well and our baby looks perfect so far. Our due date was confirmed at March 15.

It has been a busy week! School started on Tuesday, and it has been a little more difficult to get in the swing of things this year. Hopefully things will fall into place in a day or two. There are so many changes this year: moving to a new classroom, new classes, older students. I don't quite have my bearings yet. I guess that this school year just is not as significant as the other school years have been, there are just more important things going on in our lives.

I will try and post more frequently, so check back every now and then. :)
