Finally...

We have a garage!!! Well almost. I think I posted last year about the prep work we did for the garage and I honestly thought we'd have it done by the fall last year...but as it turns out, the weather didn't cooperate and we didn't get the pad poured until just last month. And now finally we are getting the garage up!! Ben's dad, brother and brother in law come up to help and I'm sooooo gratfeul they did...mostly cause Ben's pretty much useless with his cast on. I'm not sure what he was thinking when he booked his surgery for the week his daughter was born as well as just a few weeks before he planned to build the garage. I think he was trying to get out of some hard work! Well...he's better watch out, cause as soon as that cast is off he's on diaper duty!

Anyway, here are some pics of the progress:

This was this morning before much had started

And here's from just an hour ago (about 8 hours later) - it's really coming along!
And here's what Hailey did the whole time! Lucky girl!
And here are some more Haily pics just for fun!!


Just after her first bath

After her second bath...check out that hair!
So things are going good with Hailey...we're still getting used to each other of course, but it seems like we'll get along just fine. Today she is officially two weeks old!! I feel like she's been here longer than that though (judging by how tired I am). She's a good baby and eats like a pro...seriously she is soooo good at nursing! She's bulking up pretty quickly too which we're all happy about. She's such a doll and totally has her dad wrapped around her little fingers...he's a total sucker too and will do anything for her. She has it figured out that's for sure. Anyway, I'm totally in love and I know her dad is totally in love...I just can't wait until she starts sleeping through the night. She's cute enough though, that I'll patiently wait for that day to come.

She is devine! She is beautiful! I was gonna say "there is no way you just posted about a stinking garage!" I mean it is cool and all but I really wanted to see Hailey!
