Its been a pretty good week so far. A bit hot for our liking, especially since we have to wait to re-do the old wiring in the bedroom before we can put our window air conditioner in. We have all of the stuff to re-do the wiring, but unfortunately the only way to access the wires is to head up into the attic...and its a bit too toasty to do that this week. Its probably around 115 degrees up there, no joke.
As far as the pregnancy goes I'm (Emily) doing good. I've been popping Rolaids like they are Skittles lately, but other than that I feel fine, despite the heat. I'll be honest - its hard to get up and move much when its this hot but we have been spending a lot of time outside trying to catch a breeze and that helps. All the poor animals do all day is lounge on the kitchen floor. Jonas didn't even move for four hours yesterday! Poor guy.


And...the nursery is almost done! We have a few finishing touches left to do - like hang up pictures, put up the trim around the ceiling, touch-up the paint job and hook the heating back up - but we have come a long way! We still need a crib, too. Hopefully we will be getting one this weekend.


And here's the bathroom! We have a few finishing touches to do here as well - like the heating, trim, and hooking up the bathroom ceiling fan which also involves going up into the 115 degree attic. (And re-paint, because Emily doesn't like the color - but that can be done AFTER "Junior" gets here!) The shower was a pain to install to say the least, but Jeremy and Justin did a great job.

Justin did a fabulous job on the floor!



View into the hallway.
So, the hallway and trim around all of the new doors is pretty much the only big project we have left. Thanks to Minnesota's summer humidity none of the doors will shut, so we have to re-do them before we put up the trim. But, hey, the toilet works! Emily is SOOOOOO happy about that!

That's it for now - have a great week!
