A real roof with shingles and everything!! Yay! They've also started adding the furring strips for the siding.



And let's not forget the windows :)

There has been a lot going on inside the house. Important things... but hard to photograph things.

Like plumbing and bathtubs:


Electricity:
Air conditioning:


And today our shingles were delivered :)

Sam spent a few hours spray painting the inside our fake dormer today. We wanted it to be black on the inside so that you wouldn't be able to see the framing once the window was in.


Poor guy. The things he does for me :)

This picture was supposed to be of the doormers... but check out Liam. Bet you can't guess what he's doing :) All boy I tell ya!



Plumbing is starting to show up.

All of the framing is complete.


And this is my FAVORITE part... it came out so much better than I imagined! Its the doormer opened up over our kitchen. A picture really can't do it justice.

This is the view from the dining room.

The roof is almost covered. Just missing a few spots in the front.

They've started framing. I can't believe how fast it all went up. Its so fun to walk around and see the rooms taking shape.


Zoe made a snack for her and Liam and they ate it in her bedroom. So cute :)

Its amazing what can be accomplished in a day!

All the block work is complete.

I was happy to look out this morning at 7am to see them delivering a huge stack of lumber. We have the beginnings of a porch on the front :)


And inside they put up the foam board on all the walls.

They delivered our trusses at 8:30p.m. tonight. So we should start seeing a roof soon :)
