Here are some updated pics of the house!

So off to the left side there are some updated pics of the front of the house and don't worry our house will not be gray with brown garage doors. That is just the base layer. I think that we have finally chosen the stucco color that we want now and it is a taupe color. We will probably just go darker for the stucco trim around the windows and such.


So the first picture is from the front of the living room looking back to the kitchen. The second is my cute bubba of course! This is one of the first pictures of him in his walker. The is the one we have borrowed from the school district. We finally got his own (the crocodile it is called) and it is much larger and heavier to carry around. I do a lot of carrying around! We really haven't taken many pics of him in his walker so I am trying to now. Such a huge step in his life to be mobile on his own and off his hands and knees. Though he still crawls a lot (his shoes are the ones that really show that)


This next picture is of the living room and you can kinda see the fireplace in the corner. This is standing in the kitchen looking to the living room. The next one is of our basement. It is from the back (underneath the kitchen) looking out to the rest the under part of the living room, our bedroom and the bathroom. So it seems rather huge and long so maybe we will hold some football games here! Just kidding. Maybe we could get a little bike for Hayden and he could ride it down here all year long!

So this is just the back of the house. It is more long than it is wide. Our first house in Reno was more wide that long or should I say deep. The back looks bigger than the front for some reason. Maybe cause the garage breaks up the front. So our house is kind of L shaped. We have the entry and the two bedrooms up front and everything else along the long back part of the house. Anyway, we are getting excited and can't wait to spread out!

Our new Home (almost)

So we have been trying to do this for a while but we have finally started building our new home! It won't be done till next year but we are excited. Here are a few pics of the whole process from start till now (so just the very beginning).




So one pic is of the back corner of the house. It looks out to the rest of the house and the garage from the kitchen (future). The second is at the same spot but looking more at the garage. Anyway, we are excited and can't wait for it to be done. There is a long way to go from here though.




Here we have the footings and then the walls. Sorry but yes we are taking pics the whole way and we are a little excited about it all. Nice that it is close so we can see all the changes from day to day.



So we took a picture of how the stroller and Hayden could go into the garage after they water-proofed and put in the window wells then backfilled. It looks like they will need a little more dirt though. Exciting to see it starting to come together and such.




Plus Hayden is doing so well that we know that we are truly being blessed. Hayden is enough evidence of that but he sure helps to remind me of what is important and how blessed we are to have him in our lives. Hopefully all will continue to go well and Hayden will walk and talk and be even happier (if that is possible, he is a funny boy).
