slackers

So, I know we have been slackers as far as the blog is concerned. I have been taking a lot of naps so blogging hasn't been on the top of my to do list, also I haven't felt like we have been up to all that much to really shout about. This isn't all that much either, I just wanted everyone to know that we are still alive and we are back working on the yard. Here are a few pictures.

Stephen climbed in here on his own and grabbed the controls. He knows what's up.

This is our first load of gravel, we got two total. This filled in our parking area next to the garage and the area under the future deck.

Here are 6 of our first 10 (yes, FIRST 10 loads of dirt). The other 4 were in the front and the next 4 will be here on Monday. The future deck site is on the right.

Here is what the front of the house looks like with dirt spread out all nice and smooth. I love it! You can also see that we have a few plants in our bed in the front (some are actually blooming).

That is what we are up to. I sit and watch and let Stephen get dirty while Scott and his parents work like dogs. I have fed them, I guess that is my current role. We should get the rest of our dirt on Monday and then on to grass seed once the dirt is ready. We are so excited to have an end in sight! Grass that we should be able to see in about a month... yea!

In other news, I am scheduled to be induced on 9/9/09. I didn't even pick that day, it just fell into place. I would love to go into labor before that, but that would be a pretty cool birthday to have so we are excited.

There you have it, we are counting the days to baby and grass...wow are we ever exciting.
