Busy Busy

This has been such an eventful week - time seems to be flying! Last weekend Mom & Dad Engle came to visit and helped us begin painting the baby room, installing a new ceiling fan and repairing a few cracks along the way. We are trying to arrange delivery for the baby furniture and will post pictures when it is all done.
We took a short break from work to go out to dinner and celebrate Andrew's 28th birthday! They departed on Sunday afternoon, shortly before a snowstorm covered Richmond with 6-8 inches of snow, the most that we can remember within the last 5 years of living here. The heavy snow brought down a bunch of tree brances in our neighborhood, leaving us without power for a couple of days. (Fortunately we were able to stay with our awesome friend Dawn in her clean, warm, already-painted house.) It was exciting to see our house covered in snow for the first time! We had another special treat this week: Aunt Barb and Lynn from Albany visited us in Richmond as they began their whirlwind trip, visiting family all over the eastern United States. We loved seeing these wonderful and supportive women, and wish them safe travels! This week also marks 32 weeks - only 8 more left until the due date. The belly seems to be getting bigger by the minute!
