Well, today was a good day...aside from the fact that the framer didn't show up AGAIN!!!  Since our last update a lot has happened.  We actually have stairs now and the roof is done, shingles and all.  Which Brent managed to do all by his lonesome!  The electrician also came during the week and got most of the wiring done.  Today we got a different plumber to come and finish things up for us. 

Now we actually have running water upstairs again after a week without and the washing machine is working... WOOHOO!!!  Brent got the outside ready for siding today and good ol' Wayne showed up to help out and they got the windows in too!  That's the latest for now I guess. Stay tuned...

Well, it's happened....my belly button has officially disappeared and is now pretty much flat with my tummy.  There's a new TUMMY PIC in the picture gallery.  I finally broke down and took my belly button ring out and put in a navel retainer.  :o(  It's basically a clear acrylic curve that will keep the whole open until I can put the ring back in.  I think my ring may have been the only reason I still had a belly button - it was holding it together!  :o)  Other than that there's not much new.  Brent is losing weight from working so much on the house though!  It's coming along slowly but surely and he's doing a great job!  Hopefully the weather keeps cooperating until he finishes the roof!!!

Last night we went to Fetal Foto to get pictures of Jace.  It's this new technology were they take 3D pictures and 4D video in color of your baby.  It was kind of expensive, but it was really cool to get to see him!  He didn't cooperate super well and moved alot which made it hard to get good shots of him.  Plus it's kind of squished in there now since he only has 10 weeks left.  The cord was right in front of his face and his arm was along the other side, so the pics are hard to see too 
much of him. We did get to watch him do sucking motions and he kept opening his mouth and sticking out his tongue! We also saw his eyes open and him yawn. Here is one of the 3D ones in color. The thing to the left is his hand covering his eye which he moved is why it looks weird and the thing on the right is the placenta. The worm looking thing on the bottom left is the cord. See more pictures in the PICTURE GALLERY!
