Our House: Updated

I have had a few of you remind me that I have not posted pictures of my house! (yes mom, this is so that you can see where our house is at). This is the update as of yesterday! You have no idea how excited I am to finally move in and open all the boxes that are under Cody's parents crawl space! I'm sure they also will be happy to have there basement back!

Without further adue, here is our house! (pictures are in NO particular order)

It is REALLY hard not to go out every day to see our house. I do LOVE seeing it and every days new changes- but Cody  and I made a pact that we would go out once a week- so far we haven't done TOO bad in following that. These past weeks lots of stuff has been happening with the house so we have been "slipping out" to go and see it. So far not TOO many glitches with it. We are concerned with the stairs going to the basement. The show home has 3 stairs but ours has 6.... we aren't sure we like it with 6 and are hoping that they are just doing that to work and that they will put our original 3 back in, but we have to talk to them to make sure that's what they are doing.

We have a neighbour who built 1 1/2 months before us and so we have been watching there's "grow" as well. It's quite exciting actually- it's smooth sailing from here on out. They do the electrical/ insulation/ drywall this week and a half. And then they begin taping and sanding(this I have been told takes a couple of weeks to get the whole house organized. Then they paint, put our kitchen appliances/cupboards/ granite/hardwood. Then they do all the finishing touch ups(We have a desk in the living room they are building, and a shelf and seat in the "boot room"). So hopefully we can aim for beginning of July! (but I am thinking late July...) Let's just hope they stay on track! They seem to work quite fast and seem to do a lot while they are there. The contractor our builder has hired works hard and does give you what you want. Now just to get out there and give them some donuts and pops! Maybe then they will work even HARDER and FASTER to get our house done! I sure hope so!!

Anyhoo, there will be more pictures to see and more blogs to write about this house. I can't wait to see the finishing product. I love being able to see the stages it's being built in. It's really a fun process. Just wish it went by faster :P

Thanks for reading! I love to hear your feedback/ comments on my blog and just about suggestions you have! So comment away!

Choi!
