27 week ultrasound

This morning, we went to the doctor for our 27 week ultrasound.  The little gentleman was once again, quite disinterested in having his picture taken.  He is very low, head down, and face down...and is quite content to simply mind his own business in there.  He was most certainly awake, because he was happily kicking away, however had no interest in turning around to show us his pretty face.  That said, the pictures are quite distorted, as they are from a crazy angle.  

He is currently 2 lbs 3 oz and is in the 49th percentile for his size...with the exception of his head, which is just "slightly ahead of pace".  



 We love him so much and just cannot wait to meet him!

Painting the Nursery

This past weekend, Dad came by to help Josh paint the nursery.  What started off as a bare white room, was transformed, just a few hours later, into a perfect nursery for our little friend.  Though the colors didn't come out exactly as we had planned, we think it's perfect!

 Hard at work...taping.


 The proud Daddy and Grandad!

We signed the baseboard at the end of the day to commemorate our hard work...Well, Josh and Dad's hard work.  (I served more as a project manager.)

The finished product!  
The nursery is green on the bottom and yellow on top, with a white border.  (We stuck to just paint, since we're temporarily in an apartment.)  
The furniture will be arriving shortly, but in the meantime, Colleen has been sending lots of items that Ella has been kind enough to share with her baby cousin. 

It was a great day and we were happy to have Dad there to help.
