There's a hole in my dirt!

So just to keep you updated, here is the progress on the big hole and the big pile of dirt as of this morning. Just so you know, that is a big ladder that you can only see a little of:)

Look!

So we had failed to mention that we got a glorious piece of paper called our building permit last week. Of course, we were on vacation until this week. So things are finally getting rolling! I took some pictures of our lot after it is "staked out". Apparently, that means that you do a lot of measuring and calculations and put stakes in where the corners and other important parts of your house are so that the people with big machines know where to dig. So, here they are (complete with orange spray paint). First. we have a picture of our front porch. Then, a pic of the two front rooms (one will be Kaylee's room) and, lastly, the garage. Then, the random bumper and gate left on our lot. (Did we mention the killer weeds?)

Dinner Time!

So, Kaylee hasn't quite gotten down the whole eat from a spoon thing yet. I guess we will just keep working at it.

Happy 4th of July

We did a little experiment to see how Kaylee reacted to the some fire works. She seemed to like them, or maybe we just edited out the part where she screamed in fear (I'm not telling).

You little thumb sucker

It was inevitable, seeing as both mom and dad were little thumb suckers. Dad was so bad that he had to have a palate expander. Oh well, she looks so cute doing it!

I love Dirt!

So, a lot of activity on Kristi's day of birth may appear as though nothing fun happened. I promise that great fun did occur.

Anyway, onto the dirt. Click on the this link and you will see our future home. All we need is a cardboard box and we will be sitting pretty.

Steam Roller!
