No room at the Inn!

We had to install a window, it was a must! Chad's dad came and did this one afternoon.

This is the room after some of the sheet rock had gone up. I couldn't get a picture of the whole room, without getting in the way, but you can get the picture. The blue walls are NOT the colors I am using in the room. The garage walls are blue, so they will be painted over.

This is as the walls are being built.
When Chad and I first built this house, we knew it was only a temporary stomping ground. When we got married, my grandparents gave us some land, and we built a little "pool house" type thing, because 1-we are NEVER at home, 2-it was just us two, and 3-we are stingy with our money, and didn't see any point on spending it on a mortgage, when we could just live here cheap and still enjoy our previous lifestyles of spending money however and whenever we wanted to. So...brings us to February 2009 and realizing that come November it just wasn't going to be us two anymore, we were now going to have a little one. And guess what...that little one has nowhere to lay it's head! We have a 1 bedroom, 2 bath house! The living space is 1250sq/ft, and total house including the 3 car garage! is around 1500 sq/ft. So, if I were to just tell you the square footage of our house, it doesn't seem so bad, but, the baby doesn't have a room! So, we are in the process of building a room. The room was actually already there, in the garage, but it was unfinished, and we used it more for storage. So we (and by we I mean us, our families, and friends) are working diligently to finish the room, so that baby will feel welcome! And, never know that there was once "no room at the inn"!
