Jace has won them over!

Since we brought Jace home, Sidney and Mia have wondered who the crying little thing is that has been taking all of the food givers/cat box cleaners/cuddlers time away from them. Just this week, we have reached a milestone and the cats seem to understand that this little thing is not going away, so they must accept him. They don't mind him too much, as long as he is sleeping. Once he starts a squirmin', they get a movin'.

Jace has been told many times that he is a very cute boy. We think it might be going to his head:

This past week Jace has been working on his rollovers. He has been able to get up on his side constantly and we keep thinking that he is going to make it all the way.... Soon, way too soon.

And the house... It hasn't been going as quickly as we had hoped, but we are making progress. Here are two pictures that show the garage/basement walls. We have the plumbing put in and we hope to have a slab poured Tuesday. This is, of course, contingent on the weather. There have even been rumors that the framing might start at weeks end.
