Our Home

Ok, so its been brought to my attention by my loving husband, that I haven't made any posts of the house pictures... Here's a timeline of the construction so far...
Enjoy!!!
The first visit we made once "consruction" began was on September 25th...
the area where the slab would be poured had been framed up, and some of the pipes and things had been layed down.
the begining of the house...
the lake
Mikey in the bathroom
from the living room looking towards the street
The backyard








Our next visit was on October 5th...The only real change that day was that the slab had been poured... YAY!!! but we were really able to judge the size of the yard since there was a clear definition of where the house would stop.

Our next (and most recent) visit was on October 11thI lamost died when I saw the progress they had made in such a short period of time!

GEAUX TIGERS

Imagine my surprise when I went outside and found a tiger in my front yard...
At first I was a little scared... but since the Tiger seemed to be friendly I decided to go grab the camera to try and get some pics of him... I mean, how often does a Tiger show up in your front yard??????





So here they are!






















Ok, so you got me... Its Austin's halloween costume. :)



What do you think?

I think we did pretty darn good!

the weekend is over

and I am about to head to bed...

but before I went I just wanted to post a few little things about this weekend...

Me and Momma went shopping Saturday... and we got Austin a ton of clothes... now he just needs a few more pieces... mostly underwear and "pajammies" .... and maybe even another pair of shoes... .but that's it.

The Austin had a sleepover... Mike's brother called us around like 7-ish to see if Lexi could spend the night... and of course we said yes... She did great... Her and Austin have so much fun together... and I really loved listening to them giggle when we tried to put the to bed.... and having some kind of squeling contest... Those babies mean the world to me.

Today we rode out to the house... and we've got a slab! I am so glad!
I took lots of pictures, and since my memory card is in my camera, I'm not posting them tonight... Iwill post tomorrow... prob while Sarah Conner is on....

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend...
For us, it was just another weekend in paradise.

thursday

well, the week is almost over.. .and i haven't even blogged once...

Its just been a bad week...

I mean not like a "bad week" ... I was sick again last night... and we went to the park Tuesday... and Monday... well, I don't really remember monday, so yeah.... its just been... insane...

Austin's cold is getting a little worse... poor thing... he's got lime green snot... If it doesn't get better in a few days, I will be calling the doctor.

Good news, I found what I want to get Austin for his Christmas Outfit. Only problem, its not availale online yet... so, I'm hoping that they will have it in the store this weekend, because if I get my check... I'm going shopping!!!! ; )

besides that, lets see...
he is doing extremely well with the potty this week... He even made it through some of his naps this weekend dry!!!! So that's really exciting... and he has been asking for his underwear, and going to the potty... we haven't had many accidents at all! So that's nice...

I guess that's all for now... I'll post againg this weekend.
