Mommy Pride

I have to boast for a minute here.  I'm so so proud of Peanut - she has been working incredibly hard and her hard work is paying off.  At 4 years and 2 months, she is starting the 5 & 6 year old gymnastics class tomorrow and yesterday she got moved into the 5 to 7 year old swimming class which she held her own in.

Buggy is trying so hard to jump on his own and he has gotten so much closer.  He occasionally does get both feet off of the ground at the same time, but it is pretty rare.  It's cute watching him try, though!

In house news, things are progressing and hopefully we will close on our construction loan and break ground in the next week or two!  Yippee!  After closing on our first house on Jan. 5 of this year, we are ready to get construction on our new place.  We are living with my parents while our house is being built, which is great and is going well, but we feel badly for taking over my parents house and bringing our chaos to their formerly quiet home.

So far the process has been:
Go through initial plans and figure out what plan we wanted to build off of
Sign a build agreement and work on changes we wanted to happen
List our house for sale
Finalize finish choices
Sell our house
Work on our initial change order - we just finished this step...moving on to the next couple
Finalize our initial change order
Give our final purchase price to the bank

Beyond that, I'm not sure how the process goes exactly...we have definitely been learning as we go through the process but it has been so much fun!
