Only 2 weeks after our first doctor's appointment, I scheduled a visit with my doctor because I thought I had a UTI and wanted to make sure it didn't turn into anything worse.

We're Building a House!

The foundation was supposed to be poured today but with the weather as bad as it was, they have to post pone until Monday. So, Monday the slab goes down and then Tuesday, the frame starts going up! Estimated time-frame of when the house should be complete is mid-late April. I'll post some pictures from time to time throughout the build and of course when it's complete.
