Eggs!

Color eggs time! (Kayla dressed herself!)

Cant wait to get into our house. Doing eggs was not easy with no kitchen table to work on. So we had to use my desk. Ugh. Not fun.

(look at Kayla's cheese face, lol)

And then they HAD to be eaten right away.

Tomorrow we will do more eggs. At a kitchen table at a friends house.

We got windows

2 days ago we got windows. And roof tiles. And paper wrap. Wonder what have gotten since? Going to see tonight!

Check out the moon to the right in this picture. I love it.

Caden playing in empty lots across the street. 

Sliding door to back yard.

Master bath has window!

(yes that is water in the tub. I guess they are making sure there are no leaks and so far none!

My munchkin in the sunlight.

The back of our house. Empty lots still behind us.

Beautiful

One of the MANY reasons we love Las Vegas. It is BEAUTIFUL here.

This area is about 2 miles from where we are building our house.

The moon and the desert. LOVE.

More moon and desert.

This is the view of the Las Vegas strip. It shows how really close to the strip we are! Its amazing.

Still cant believe we LIVE here.

New friend!

It has been since January since we had a treadmill. Its now April and I can not go any longer. Since I havent had my running partner in my house I haven't been able to run hardly at all. I have had more sickness, more pain, more ache, more sluggishness and just an overall feeling of being my actual age. (28) Surprisingly, I havent gained all that much weight even without running. When we left Guam I hit 115 lbs, and now I have been holding steady at 119.6 somehow. Which on me is a little chunky in the belly area.

I need to get back to running ASAP.

So, last night we went to a store to see a specific treadmill in person and I was hoping that I would say I didnt like the expensive one all that much. But wow, I loved it. I CANT wait to get it. It should be here in 3-5 days!!!

First crocheting attempt

Over the weekend my greatest friend ever Dawn taught me how to crochet. I caught on pretty quick.
I got home and was working on it for a couple hours.

At this point my ends were straight, not triangle.

For 2 days I worked on this thing. I got almost the whole thing of yarn done.

Here it is yesterday before I started working on it.

Then last night I ripped it out. My practice blanket that was going to be a blanket for Kayla's dolls, somehow was turning into a triangle and I ripped it all out. I guess Im missing 1 stitch in each row somehow. I don't see it though. 

And now Im back to this.

Hopefully it wont be a triangle again. 

I gotta figure that out.

House progress

After 3 days of me having a mysterious 102 fever, finally Saturday morning I got to see our house and then finally yesterday I got to actually walk through it!

WOW!

This is where our children will have their childhood memories. This is where from nothing but dirt we will have our family home memories.

We got dry wall sitting in the living room and garage.

We got plumbing! 

We got kitchen plumbing!

We got electrical! this is the view looking out the double back doors to the back yard.

We got the downstairs and 3rd shower half way in!

Bath tubs!

A few days after Mimi and Papa left Las Vegas Nick checked out our house on his lunch break.

He found bath tubs in the garage!!!
