Construction Update

So I apologize that this post has been a little delayed. We have been so busy trying to get everything in motion and I really thought I'd have more to show you by now. We've had a lot of rain here lately and it's really held us up. But here is what we've got so far...

We have foundation walls (with brick)!

As well as a massive pile of mud...

That seems to have taken over the entire right side of our yard...

But we do have the beginnings of a foundation. We've had the walls poured, ground work plumbing and they've prepared for the concrete slab to be poured. We're crossing our fingers that it doesn't rain so they can come tomorrow morning. If that all happens, Andy will be able to start framing the basement walls and I know he's itching to!

So that's about all we've got going on right now. My father-in-law told us last night that he thinks we should be done before Christmas, which made my husband laugh hysterically because he is also working full time at his real job through this process, not to mention we're due to have our second baby on December 15. I'm not counting on it but it sure would be nice if that happened being that we're going to be sharing a room with the baby until he finishes ours!

Hopefully I'll have more to show you real soon. Keep your fingers crossed for no rain!

Maddie is 20 months old and I'm 30 weeks pregnant with our next one and yes, we know we're crazy to be doing all of this right now :-)
