Somebody Loves His Daddy!

Oreo sure has bonded with John! He snuggles with him every night and waits patiently for John to brush him! They make a sweet pair!

More House Updates!!!!


I don't know why all of the sudden the pictures are coming up this way but....The picture on the left shows the back deck and John has just gone over the red trim. Below is the garage; all sheet rocked and taped.





The picture on the left is of John putting up the painted trip on the front left side of the house. The colors really look great together! Below is a picture of the trim around the windows!









This is a closer picture of the back deck with the trim. I think it looks great!

Another Lighting Choice...Up and Running!!


These are the lights that are on the garage. We have a two-car garage so there will be one on each side. I think they fit in nicely with the look we are going for!

Sheet Rock Excitement!

Today the sheet rock has started! This is so exciting! One that is done and it's textured, we can paint inside and put in the floor and then the cabinets and then...WOO! We are getting so close! John says once the garage is set up with shelving he can start bringing boxes of stuff when he goes to work each day, and just put it on the shelving. I am trying to get things cleaned out etc. so we can start packing and get that going! Yippee!!!

This is Jacob's room!

This is the living room/kitchen/dining room!!!

More of the kitchen in this view! The window is where the sink will be, and the left window is sliding glass doors. Our kitchen table (when we get one!) will be over there in that corner of the room!

We have Insulation!

Here are some pictures of the house with insulation! Yippee! It was funny going in the house today; it felt like I needed to pop my ears! No more echo! The sheet rock (and supplies) have been delivered this morning and will be worked on tomorrow!

Insulation!!!!!

Today the insulation started! John said it's a dusty, dirty, itchy mess, and didn't want Jacob, Justin or I to come down during the process, so he was my photographer this morning! They are hoping to be finished today. Tomorrow the sheet rock will arrive and Friday it will be put in! Yippee!!! I believe once this is done, we can paint and then the cabinets can be installed! But I may be jumping the gun....hee hee!

More Fun with Feet....

Jacob loves playing with his feet. He also loves playing with his rattles. I have the hardest time keeping socks on him because he pulls them off so he can get to those feet! As a gift we had received some socks that had animals on the toes that are filled with rattle goodies! So he got to play with is feet AND a rattle. It was a lot of fun to watch!
