September and October House Update!

I've pretty much been absent on my blog. Two kids are crazy, have I mentioned that? Haha. They don't leave much time for blogging currently. But Parker has blessed me with a long nap and Logan's eating a brownie and watching Paw Patrol so I'm taking advantage.

On September 8th they FINALLY did our driveway. I have no idea why they did it separate from our original slab! Such a weird time frame. But anyway, I was super happy to see them put it in.

The next day I stopped by and they were painting the exterior of the house!  That was pretty exciting. The two paint colors I liked best our neighbors had already chosen, but I like this one too. I'm wanting to paint the door green though. 

Here it is all finished.

The following week, by the 15th, they had put in the tile, toilets, granite, faucets, and dishwasher. I have to tell y'all, I was not thrilled when I saw the tile with the granite. It just felt like SO much brown. I'm really hoping that when we paint and put our stuff in it won't be so much brown brown brown!

And the next week, on September 20, they had put on the roof! They had it partly done when I dropped Logan off at preschool and almost completely done by the time I picked him up two hours later! Crazy!

The next time I came by, September 27, the bathrooms were completely done! All the light fixtures were in and the towel racks were up and the glass for the shower had been installed.

Then I went out of town to my parents house for a week and got back a couple days ago. Today we went in for our first walkthrough! They've finished everything! The last things were the carpet, the front landscaping, and the blinds.

Parker liked the carpet!

The landscaping is fine...I want to put in some different plants.

And the blinds look good! I really like the valences. You can't tell from the picture but they look really good.

I can't believe it's finally DONE! I feel like this has been going on forever. It's been like another pregnancy. Hahahaha. Seriously though. 8 months. Crazy long.

We sign papers next Tuesday and then on Thursday we do another walkthrough and make sure they've fixed everything and then we should get the keys that day!! We're not going to move in until we've painted though. Jordan is trying to decide if we're going to paint or if we'll have someone paint. I've got my fingers crossed for the latter. Haha!

I'm so excited! When we close I will do a video so you guys can really see what it's like. Ahhhhhh I just can't wait to have those keys!
