End of month update

First our glorious news, Miss Hailey Jane was born Oct 10 to our son and daughter-in-law.  She is beautiful!!

At her birth

At 2 weeks, she likes to sleep with her hands above her head.  

The other news is that the house is progressing nicely.  Our builder is doing a beautiful job!  I would highly recommend him.   I think we should be ready to move in, in about 3 weeks.  

Fireplace in living room

Woodwork in sunroom

Bench with storage above and below in mud room 

Master bath cabinets

Kitchen

Lots more to do, but so happy with what is done.  The builder's Father is here grading the back yard and spreading gravel for the first stage of our future patio.   The trim around the windows and doors is almost done, most lights are hung, all cabinets are hung and countertops and sinks are in except in mud room bath and guest bath.  We are still waiting on delivery for them.  Most of the doors are in, but waiting on 5 of them as they had to be reordered.  The geothermal is hooked up and ready to go. 

Here is the view from our deck

October 2014 Update

So much is happening in our lives with anticipated arrival of our first grandchild and the final stages of the house build!  We are so excited!!!

First the grandchild, she should be making her appearance very soon!!!!  Will post immediately!!!  :)

Second, the house is coming along nicely, cabinet bases have been installed in order to measure the templates for the counter tops.  Two have been delivered; one for the pantry and one for the folding counter in the laundry room (aka:  changing table for baby).  :)

Butler's pantry, I am going to love all

the extra storage in this kitchen!!!

 

 Cabinet in Laundry room,  we had a larger one in Holy Cross

and I loved the convenience.

 

Here are the kitchen cabinets

 

Yellow guest bedroom



Hallway lights from a Foundry in Vermont

Pendants over the island are also from this Foundry. 

Fireplace is installed and the stone is scheduled

for this coming Wednesday.  Also scheduled is the counter top

installation for the kitchen and master bath. 



 

The stone is going up on the front of the house.

It should be finished by next week also.  

 

The anticipation is growing!!!  I know we are going to really enjoy this home!!!  Dave, along with our builder has spent so much thought given to all the little details which will make this home truly custom to us.  He has done a remarkable design job.  The builder has been very impressed with how the house is coming together.  Not to brag but he says it is one of the nicest he has ever built!!  Wow!!  I told Dave maybe he has found his second career!!  :)

 

Thanks for checking in!  I will post as soon as that baby is born and I get some pictures!!!
