3 Babies


Baby #1: A beautiful Hallet, Davis, & Co. baby grand piano. My dream and I love it.

Baby #2: A minivan. Don't laugh. And I know, it's dirty from all the snow melting. A bigger vehicle became a necessity because of....

Baby #3: Due April 22nd. Here I am at 31 weeks. Again, don't laugh. I know I'm huge and I still have 9 more weeks to go. Can't wait to meet our newest little boy!

Final House

I apologize for the delay in posts. Blogger is now letting me upload more pictures so here is our final house! We started moving in November 10th and love it. Sorry for the overload of pictures, but enjoy!

Front of the House

South Side

Pretty Garage Doors

As you walk in the front door, there are these columns and a formal sitting room. This room is also going to have a baby grand piano in it. :) It is all an open room but the formal sitting room is defined by the columns and a drop ceiling. The dining room is in the very back of this picture.

More of the columns

Standing in the front door looking at the family room. (The mantle had not been put up yet on the fireplace)

The fireplace with the mantle. The rock is the same as the exterior

Front kid bedroom

Kids Bathroom

Kids Shower/Tub

Back Kid's Bedroom (Celeste's)

Middle Kid's Bedroom (Caleb's)

Each of the closets have double rods and custom shelves. I LOVE THEM!

Laundry Room

Lockers located in the laundry/mud room. We have winter clothes storage in the top ones and coats in the bottom closets. Love the lockers!

Master Bedroom. The master bedroom is located on the opposite end of the house as the kids' bedrooms.

Master Bath 6 foot Tub

Master Bath Shower with 2 shower heads....a tall one for Ryan and a short one for me :) (You can only see my short one in this picture)

Master Bath Vanity

Master Bath Closet #1. Ryan and I each have our own closet.

Upstairs Playroom. All this room has in it is toys and the toys stay up there! (And I don't clean it up that often!)

Going downstairs from the play room.

Unfinished full basement but it has cool insulation around the cement.

What will eventually be a storage room. That door goes to the cold storage room.

Gorgeous kitchen (picture taken from the dining room)



 Thanks for looking and being patient with me. We are still trying to get things on the walls and still have all those annoying boxes of stuff in the garage. You know the stuff you haven't looked at for 5 years but you can't throw it away? Oh wells. We love our new house.

Suggestions?

My blog will not let me upload any more pictures. It says I have used all my space. I didn't know I had a limit. Has anyone else had this problem? What did you do? I don't really want to go back and delete pictures (if that's even an option) because I go back and look at them on occasion. And I don't want to pay the monthly fee. Do you just make another blog and link them together? Or do I delete enough to get just the final weeks pictures of my house on here and call my blogging experience complete and finished?
 
I'd love your help and suggestions. Thanks.

Enjoy and have a great day!

Week 19 and 20

Week 19 and 20
October 15-27

During week 19, they put up the siding and week 20 they put up the rock.


They ran out of siding, but it should be up soon.

They've been prepping and painting during these last two weeks and are still painting today.

Fixed our missing two pieces of tile.

More pictures of the trim work and paint

They used an oil base paint. It looks very sharp and is supposed to be easy to clean. :)

Put rock up around the fire place. There will still be a mantle that goes on top of the rocks.

Our painted front door.

Week 18

Week 18
October 9-13
 
They installed the lockers in our laundry room.

And the cupboards that will go above our washer/dryer. The sink is missing still. That's a big sink!

 John built our stairs coming out of our mud/laundry room into the garage.

Our bathroom cupboard under the tub was installed.
 
And our bathroom vanity

This is the kids bathroom vanity not yet completed, but close. 

My new favorite part of my house....the kitchen! I LOVE IT! So gorgeous.


Appliances aren't installed yet.

They also put in the columns that will define the living room and the family room. 
 
I have gotten so excited after seeing all the progress this week. I love it!
