House Update!

I don't think I've posted anything about the house since we actually got it, and it's starting to finally take shape! Below are some pictures with the dates that I took them. I try to swing by a couple times per week, potentially more now that progress is actually visual. It took a while for permits to be approved, but now that they're framing, it's actually looking like a real home <3

July 6: They finally poured the street!


September 7: They put backyard gates in. We have a black rod-iron one, and across the street has wooden.



October 3: They had framed for the foundation and were starting to fill it with dirt!


October 12: They spread the dirt (hahaha - what a great update, I know).


October 28: They had more dirt in, and were digging trenches and putting in pipes!


November 9: They put the black tarp over it, and this is when we realized the slab pouring was getting close!


November 16: We were at this stage for a while. It had been raining and they were waiting on inspections. Plus we've been neck-and-neck with the house next to us, so they could've been holding things up since we're pouring together.



November 22: We have a foundation!!! It was a lot more fun to walk on the actual concrete and think, "This is where Baby Girl will sleep" <3 You can also tell how high up the back porch will be. At least there's a good breeze?





November 30: As I started driving down the street, I got really excited when I saw they had started framing!!! Eek!!!


I think we're still on an April / May completion date, so hopefully we stick to the schedule and the holidays don't delay anything. Fingers crossed xx
