House Progress...

Saturday we did our weekly 'visit the house and buy things for it' excursion.

We took some pictures, but nothing looks much different than last time.

They had all the electrical stuff done, the garage door installed AND all the locks on all the doors. (Jeff had to slip in through the basement window---NO ONE can keep that one out)

We met our construction manager for our 'pre insulation walk through' yesterday.

The meeting went well. He said that there aren't any issues and that things are progressing even better than they could be.

He told us that the insulation and drywall will go up in the next 2 weeks, at the same time they'll do the exterior concrete (driveway, sidewalk) and start siding. Then it's the painting, trim, cabinets and flooring.

He gave us a completion date: June 16th.

That's exactly around the time that we estimated from the get-go. Jeff and I do think that the house could be done sooner than that, so maybe they're giving themselves some extra cushion so they look even better if it's done sooner.

Whatever. We'll take June 16th.

We're CHINA ADOPTERS. We know how to wait!

So, that's that. We may not go visit the house for a couple of weeks.........

yeah, we'll see how that pans out. I, for one, just can't stay away.

Although it is getting harder and harder to leave . Now that it's an actual shelter, we just want to move in. They can work around us. We can handle the construction mess and noise. That's all we've known for the past 11 years!!

Brett and Lili are doing well, by the way :)

They have 26 more days of school. Brett is very excited about that and Lili, of course, doesn't know a thing! Life is just one surprise after another for that girl.
