Dan spent the past 2 Saturdays building a fence for our backyard. Last Saturday, July 7th, he and his friend Aaron dug all the holes and concreted in the posts. This past Saturday, Dan was able to recruite several more friends from church to help- Todd, Jeremiah, Brian, Aaron, and also both our dads. They were able to get all the crossbeams and pickets hung. Then Sunday, Dan's brother Chris came over to help build and install the gates. We'll hopefully have some pictures to post soon.
Also last Saturday, my sister Jessica threw a really fun and intimate baby shower with some of my closest friends. Thank you Jess for your hospitality and creativity with the great food and fun games. Everyone especially seemed to enjoy the "Nursery Rhyme Charades"! Also thanks for not playing the "toilet paper to measure the mom's belly" game. :-) Dan and I got so many great gifts at this shower - many much needed items like diapers, wipes, toys, dolls, and bath items. Ethan is one blessed little boy! Now if we can just keep our dog from adopting all Ethan's toys as her own, we'll be set!
Tomorrow we go back to UNC Hospital for our weekly checkup and monitoring of the amniotic fluid. Please pray that the fluid levels have not dropped too low so that Ethan doesn't have to be delivered too early. We want him to be born as full term as possible so his lungs will be well developed. We'll let you know how the appointment goes and what the doctor plans to do if the fluid levels are low.
