We're getting there!!

Well, the driveway is poured but as you can see it is still a bit wet. It will take a few days to dry.

Also, Abby's brother started on the bedroom floors and will finish tomorrow. Things are moving along great. The front and back porch are almost finished as well.


All that's left is the final inspection so we can have electricity and we should be set to move in. YEAH!! Abby's looking forward to planting some flowers and beautifying the yard.

Progress of our house & baby

We are working on the last few things on our house. Brock is building the porch for us; Ben's co-workers are pouring the driveway; Abby's brother is installing the bedroom floors. We are looking to move in the end of this month. Abby is in her nesting stage and constantly asks, "Is the house going to be ready before the baby comes?" She has her good days and bad days. Ben is handling these last couple months really well.

We picked up the baby's crib and changing table this past weekend and Abby's excited about decorating the nursery.

This picture was taken in Tifton, GA. Abby was 29 weeks.

Note: *If you click on the pictures they should come up clearer*

We're having a baby girl!!

Yes, Abby is 31 weeks pregnant with a little girl. She is just starting to feel uncomfortable as the baby is about 3 pounds right now and moving like crazy. Here are some ultrasound pictures. The first one was taken when she was 13 weeks pregnant and the other at 21 weeks. It was such an incredible moment for both of us to see our little girl. Abby cried and Ben had this silly grin on his face.

Our House

We bought a piece of property in St. Rose, LA back in December of 2006. Ben's boss builds houses at a factory and is able to move them long distances. We bought one of his houses and moved the house onto our property. It was scary to watch but the neatest thing ever (you don't see a fully built house being moved down the street often). Ben and his work crew build the foundation so that the house would lay on it. It was tricky because all four corners had to line up exactly.

The walls inside the house were already painted but we wanted some color so Abby chose a red color in her kitchen.

Welcome

Hi Family and Friends,

Enjoy, Ben and Abby
