Windows completed

Windows

This day they started putting in windows, and there are also some inside pictures as well :)

New plan :)

So originally I wanted to keep a documentation of day to day blogging, but my husband and I had a miscommunication lol, imagine that right?! Anyhow I originally posted with Day 1 or Day 4 with pictures, but then realized that when Drew was taking the pictures and transferring them to the computer, he was only putting new days when something new was done to the house! Oh well,, So I will no longer be tracking which day it is, I will just be blogging about the new happenings of the house construction. I realize I can go back and figure it out with the day to day idea, but I just don't want to deal with it :) Way too many other things to be doing!

Problem

Houston we have a problem! We got there today to look and take pictures and realized that they forgot to put a gable on the back right side of the roofing. It was mandatory from the HOA because of the length of the continuous roof line on the back side of the house. So we sent an email to the builder and we will see what they decide to do. There should be a gable above the single window on the back right of the upstairs. Hopefully it can be an easy fix and not have to take things down and redo them!!!

This was the first day we took Alexis into the construction area. She was excited, and wanted to get her picture taken in her room :)

By the end of this day they were just about finished with the front porch. You can also see that they cover up the windows with piles of wood whenever they leave the work site lol.

Drew was super excited that they finally had the stairs finished so he could explore upstairs!!!!!!
