It's taking shape!

It's starting to look like something!  We had a big day at the house yesterday. 

Septic tank is in! Ooh exciting stuff on the blog today! 


Now don't ask me if those 2 green humps can be covered up or hidden eventually. I'm going with yes because I don't want to look outside and constantly be reminded that there's a giant container of poop in the yard. I think I'll need to do some creative landscaping. 

I told Tatum that it's where her poop will go and now she thinks we'll have to go outside to use the bathroom :)

We also have footings!  They were really quick with getting them in too. I worked Wednesday but Jake went out and sent me pictures. My dad went out there too and I made him send me pics as well. I'm honestly super close to asking the contractor to send me update pics every few hours... I'm trying my hardest not to ask. But when it comes to framing I can't make any promises! 

This was Wednesday around noon, forms for footings:

And I went out Thursday morning as soon as I dropped the girls off at school and it already looked like this!




And then by the afternoon the forms for the foundation had started!


They expect to be able to pour the foundation on Monday, but I just looked at the forecast and they're calling for rain. 

We're heading out to the house right now and I can hardly wait to see the progress. It's been raining off and on now too so I hope they're out there... I'll supply the ponchos!
