Building Update #3

Foundation is set and framework is in the works!! These are pictures from the lunch hour today, so we assume the frame will be complete by tomorrow. Moving right along :)





Things will begin to slow down a bit due to inspection regulations as they go forth will all the guts of the house, but if everything continues to move this quickly and go according to plan, Brooklyn will be in a new home by her second birthday (fingers crossed)!!

Blue or Pink??



Tomorrow we head to the doctor for our second sonogram; Baby Hein #2!! It was originally scheduled for 3:00, but they called today to reschedule....."really, you want me to reschedule??" Our first sonogram had to be pushed back a week because the technician had jury duty. Well, I begged not to have to wait another week, so it was changed to 11:00. Unfortunately, work is crazy for Aaron right now so we are hoping and praying he can make it on time! Otherwise, it would be devastating not to have him there and I will definitely reschedule if they let me.

Last time with Brooklyn, as some may remember, we were originally not going to find out whether she was a boy or girl. We caved leaving the office, had them seal it in an envelope and would later piece together the remains of a shredded "It's a girl!" This time, I purchased a blue and a pink onsie to have them wrap in a bag to be opened when we are ready.

I have had some anxiety about the health of the baby and at this point (just like last time), I want to see a healthy, growing baby on the screen!! Gender being a bonus. We are unsure when we will even open the bag at this point, because just getting a glimpse of Baby Hein #2 is exciting and joyous enough!!

Building Update#2

Aaron swung by the house on Monday during his lunch hour and here is the latest progress. Looks like the foundation will be next; we anticipate by the end of this week. I will certainly keep posting progression pictures.

New Home Under Way

We met with the construction manager this past Friday for a "pre-construction" final meeting! Ha! Basically, we finalized the hard plans/blue prints so work on the house could take off. Little did we know, they had already down all the plumbing for the house!! Looks like the foundation is next; finishing the job before we know it. We are beyond anxious to get into our new home :)





I snapped pictures of the model home while we were there....obviously we will not have all of these upgrades, furniture and colors, but it's still interesting to see and envision!


Dining Room as you walk in the house on the right.


Entry Way Rotunda, except the decorated wall you see will be the stairway to our Game Room and Half Bath upstairs.



Kitchen and Breakfast Area (sorry about the dark picture)





Living Room, except the wall between the Breakfast Area and Living Room will not be covered with stone.





Spare Bedrooms and the third will be located close to the Master (B's room will be the one she is actually standing in in the picture, nursery is the other).


Spare Bathroom down the hallway with the kiddos' rooms.


Laundry Room near the spare bedrooms.




Master Bedroom located at the back of the house.




Master Bathroom with a closed-in toilet space!!


Covered Patio and our brick color will be similar to this as well.

Swim Time!

Brooklyn LOVES the water!! She is a splashing, kicking, jumping-from-the-second-step feen! More of these picture blogs to come all summer long :)


"Cheese".... My Daddy bought me this pretty swimsuit!


I like my floatie, but it is kind of restricting.


Playing with Mommy.


Splash Smiles!


That's me, Brooklyn Grace.

Another Zoo Day

Oh my, the days are getting hotter and so we fit in an early morning zoo trip today and lunch with Daddy!
Brooklyn rants about the "dinosaurs" at the house, but was hesitant to get up close and personal with them at the various exhibits. Not scared, just cautious...hehe! Anyhow, we got to see the zebras rolling around in the dirt, the rhino was swimming, and the lioness looked so comfortable lounging around.







I just love this camera lens.....we were so far away from most of these animals....ZOOM!!!



"It's hot Mommy, when is lunch?"

4 Years

Aaron and I celebrated our 4 Year Wedding Anniversary on the 2nd! He sent me a stunning floral arrangement to school and we went to dinner that night!!
There is not a day that goes by that I don't fall more and more in love with every aspect of Aaron Jacob Hein!!
