We're over half way there and Greg and I can't wait to meet our little Mango!
Haiden is about 6 inches long and 8.5 ounces. He is covered with a protective layer of hair and oil protecting him against the amniotic fluid...imagine taking a 9 month bath without it! He is an active little Mango, rolling, turning and kicking throughout the day. His kicks are becoming more distinct and I am having no problems distinguishing them from regular tummy rumbles. Ho loves to kick when I lay down to sleep and it's an amazing experience to feel him before I doze off every night. I can't wait to meet him! He is even growing toothbuds and forming cartilage...our little one is growing so fast!
This weekend (and all last week) we have been preparing for the living room, kitchen and dining room remodel. Greg was hard at work all week long, taking down shelves and molding and ripping up floors to prepare. This weekend Mom, Dad, Mackie, Kathy and Frenchy came over to help us with the final details like moving all our stuff to the now full office and nursery and taking down pictures and socket plates. Every time we get the office and nursery clean and organized we take on another project where we fill them up again...I just don't understand it! :) Greg, Dad and Frenchy took down the molding and 70s wood paneling from the dining room and Greg burned it in the chiminea...he just loves that thing! After all that dust was stirred up, poor Greg couldn't even be in the house. We hadn't given it much thought before then but we decided we couldn't stay at the house during the remodel because Greg wouldn't be able to breathe. So Tommy and Gloria were nice enough to lend us their guest room for the week until we can go back and the dust has settled. Unfortunately we didn't catch the problem in time for Greg to avoid a mild sinus infection but he is taking medicine and getting better. He now has to wear a mask when he goes to the house.
I'll be happy when it's all over and done...I miss my house. I can't wait to see it completed...it'll feel like we've added 1000 sq. ft to the house...I am so excited! Here are the before pictures. We'll be going by daily to take progress pics...I can't wait to see the afters!
