Framing

The framers started on the house last Monday.  They should be finished sometime in the next two weeks.  The boys are really loving this part of the process since they can finally walk through the rooms and see where everything will be.  Last night, we climbed up to the second floor with them and let them see where their bedrooms will be.  There weren't any walls framed yet (just the decking on the floor) so they were a little confused but still really excited.  I took the bottom picture this morning - the framers were working on the upstairs walls.  I can't wait to take the boys back tonight so they can see their bedroom walls!!!

House Progress!!!

Yesterday, Matt woke me up at 4:45 AM to watch 23 concrete trucks pour the foundation for our new house! 
It is so exciting to see some progress --- they are scheduled to start framing next week.

Parrots

Our hotel in Cancun had two beautiful parrots that the kids got to hold.  Reese jumped right in and did everything they asked him to.  Cole really surprised us by not wanting to hold either of the birds.  Finally, he agreed to hold the bird's tail, but he wasn't tall enough to see over it.  Ha!
