The First Floor!

Well the house is now starting to take shape. The first floor has been framed (no, not like, "I was framed!" more like it was given a frame). They tell us now that our projected close date is sometime in the middle of July. This would be a month earlier than what they had originally told us. Let's hope the weather holds up and we are able to move in sometime in July.

The Secret Project

Not to be a secret for too long, the cat has been let out of the bag (figuratively!). Kathe was right on track with wondering if the project involved Christie or not. Yep, it does. She's pregnant again!!!! Yea!!! Child number two is on the way. This week she'll be 11 weeks along. Due date is November 2nd. I think it's a girl. Just because. No reason.

The odd thing about this is that we're living with her parents while our house is being built. Talk about uncomfortable!!!!

The House: Week Two

Well not too much going on, but some progress. The garage has been filled in and they've built up the basement walls (where needed). Since I have never built a house before I can only assume that the first floor is next. Or maybe they first have to give the basement a floor. Hey I don't know. Take a look at the photos I stitched together below of the basement.
