This weekend we cut up our old counter tops (using the new power- saw, drill, etc. set that my parents gave us for Christmas) and installed them in our pantry under the stairs as shelves. It was fun to recycle materials and the shelves look nice and are very sturdy! 
This picture makes them look really small, but they are 38 inches wide and 15 inches deep, supports on both sides with an L bracket in the middle. Dad would be proud. Britton was definitely the leader on this project and I was his helper/sidekick/muse.Last Friday after work, Britton and I went over to the labor and delivery floor to borrow an exam room with a 3D ultrasound. The baby still looks very healthy with a normal heartbeat but it turns out that 15 weekers look a little scary in 3D because they haven't added much body fat yet. Let's just say that those pictures are not keepers. The tech came in to give her opinion and she was very confident that it's a healthy boy! I have my next official ultrasound in 3 weeks so I'll finally have confirmation of the sex from my own ob/gyn. Meanwhile, we have already started to talk about the baby using "he" and "him" and "our son!" Wow!
Very exciting times! Your updates look amazing. Makes me want to fix our under-stairs closet up. It is a mess now. Cannot wait to hear the "official" news of sex of Baby Crigler!
ReplyDeleteYay! I thought that u/s pic looked like a BOY!
ReplyDeleteThe early 3d pics looked more like a greatful dead poster than a nice 2d profile...
ReplyDeleteGreat recycling on the shelves!
