The new house update
The basement is poured and will be finished after we move in. The septic is done except a layer of dirt to be smoothed over it. The framers have been here since Friday and have completely framed the main floor (kitchen, laundry room, 1/2 bath, living room and our master bedroom/closet/bath)and the garage. Today they are putting up the trusses. From the photo you can see that our 2nd floor will be built directly inside of the trusses. I think they are also finishing the front part of thte roof of the wrap around porch. Upstairs will have 4 identical bedrooms and two back to back identical bathrooms. Our plan was to make that as "kid friendly" as possible. I am still begging Dave for a laundry shoot to make it "mom friendly"! I might get it if I cry hard enough! Next week the windows and doors go in, roofing goes on and finally it will get bricked. It's so exciting to walk around each night after the crew has left and see what they've accomplished.

How exciting for you!!! Looks like things are moving along nicely!!! And a laundry shoot would be really cool!
I second the idea of a laundry shoot! Maybe even a dumb waiter might not be a bad idea! You've got to get all that laundry back upstairs.
I'm very excited for you. It looks like the builders have gotten a tremendous amount of work done already! When do you anticipate moving in?
