Hoping to start the final push.

There have been so many delays and frustrations out at the farm over the past few weeks. Progress has really slowed and it is a little overwhelming. We will work hard to get things going in the right direction though. I am really hoping that we get all of our rough-in inspections completed this week. Maybe we can even get insulated. Then it will be a very intense couple of months as we race to be finished by Thanksgiving. Liz still has a lot of decisions to make and I’m worried that will cause some bottlenecks.

This morning I ordered our interior doors down in Columbia. I also need to order some more siding and all of our flooring. There are lots of other things to buy as well. I will be feeling a lot better once we are insulated and I can really begin doing most of the remaining work myself.

New crib.

After going to Columbia this morning my dad and I spent the afternoon at the condo watching Luke and assembling his new crib. It seems like a nice piece of furniture  – pretty attractive and reasonably well built. It went together fairly quickly. Luke was a bit out of sorts. He didn’t eat great today. He let my dad hold him for a little while, but then he started fussing. It was bath night and he handled that well.
