R @ 2 yrs and A @ 9 mths

The kids went to the pediatrician for their checkups yesterday. Asher was very brave and didn't even cry when they pricked his toe. Reese...well...Reese started the tantrum when we went to get her weight on the baby scale (her last time!) and it didn't get much better after that. Oh well. They are both doing great and here are the latest stats:
Reese: 33lbs6oz, 34.25 in
Asher: 23lbs4oz, 30 in
Unfortunately that means no more infant car seat for Asher as he is now at the height limit of 30 inches.

After being gone for 10 days, it was pretty exciting to see all the hard work CK has been doing on the house. I took a lot of pictures and figured some of you might want to see them so forgive me for those who don't :)
That's one tall wall!
The driveway coming up to the house
View from the basement looking through the opening that will be the stairwell to the first floor (or second floor depending on how you look at it)
CK moved most of these ridiculously heavy floor trusses by himself

the back of the house has been backfilled so you can now walk right into the back door; this view is looking into the back door, through the house and out the front door
the waterproofing that goes on the ICFs
main living floor, standing in the mud room looking back to the kitchen, living room and master
standing in the foyer looking out the front door; the drop out the door is a bit intimidating right now
CK standing at the top of the stairs, eyes closed because it's so BRIGHT
in the living room looking out the main windows (half up)
