20 weeks down, 20 more to go

Last week we went in for our 20 week ultrasound.  It was crazy to see the baby in such detail although most of the time I had no idea what I was looking at.  We did find out that we're having a girl, which we are both very excited about.  We both had a feeling that she might be a girl before the check up.  She didn't really want to show us much of her face but we did get one peek at her profile.

And here's my profile.

Doug has been very busy working on finishing the attic which will become her room when she's ready for it.  It was finished to begin with but just kind of gross up there.

After completely gutting it, taking out the chimney and adding a roof vent, this is where it is now.

We got some brand new windows to put in so that will come next along with some wiring.  In the end, we hope for it to be a little something like this.
 While working on the attic, Doug also wants to take the chimney out of the main floor which will open up a lot of space but leave our living area a construction zone for awhile.  I can't say I'm thrilled about this prospect.  Let's remember that it is summer vacation so relaxing is a top priority, for me anyway.  So this weekend we headed up to Doug's family's cabin and did a little kayaking and fishing on Trillium Lake to beat the heat in Portland.  I love summer.
