The house is taking shape!

0 Comments from family/friends
Today, we all went to check out the new house since Chris rarely gets to see the house so I took this opportunity to take some pictures since I didn't have both kids attached to me.

The white "Tyvek" area will be stone
Garage - The white trim will be painted to match the trim around the house

Mudroom
Dining room
Kitchen area looking towards family room, stairs to upstairs, and Leah pointing to her playroom :)

Drywall is going up!

1 Comments from family/friends
It's been awhile since I last posted and so much has happened! The house is slowly but surely coming along and Jacob is growing like a weed.

As far as the house goes, we are at the drywalling stage. By Monday they should be all done, which means the ceilings will be finished, walls will be ready for paint, and we'll be set to do the fun stuff...trimming LOL.

Here are some pictures that I took on my phone (I keep forgetting to bring the camera and when I do remember...I forget in the midst of caring for two and trying to have meetings with contractors about this and that.

Yes, Leah's potty...and she uses it EVERY SINGLE TIME we are there LOL
