More progress on the house!

Things here are moving along...just not as quickly as I hoped they would. We had our walk through on the house on Monday for framing. That means that framing is done, wiring, plumbing, and the duct work. We also have our stairs in our garage and out the back. It looks like a house with no walls. It does get exciting to think about moving in. They tell us it's an average of 90 days after this walk through (which puts it too close to December for my liking.)

In the next week and a half they said the dry wall will go up, the shingles will go on, and we will finally have windows. Those will be BIG things. I can't wait! I will appreciate the space so much, and maybe my kids will learn to be a little nicer to each other with more space.

Petunia started pre-school on Monday. She looks so cute in her backpack and all ready for school. She loves school even though she already has gotten in trouble (she just needs to learn to listen a little better.) She wants to ride the bus so badly, and doesn't understand that I have to drive her until we move into the house. It's a teary end to everyday, but it makes me happy we won't have issues with being scared of the bus.

Chunk is signing a bunch now, and is talking a little. It's so cute to see him sign that he's sorry after he body slams you. He is a boy through and through. I am going to have a rough houser on my hands, but it's quite cute to see.

Well, best get back to life!
