It took the whole summer practically but our new porch is finally done! (The top is after, bottom is before.) A new front porch wasn't the first thing on our list to get done but after looking at the before picture I'm so glad we did it. Our old porch was actually becoming quite the safety hazard after having multiple people almost fall through the railing we decided we should probably do something about it. We extended it all the way to the end of the new addition, we moved our front door to the middle of the bay window (which made it possible to make our master closet larger.) We also were able to add a large covered area on the porch (my dream was to have the whole front porch covered but it just wasn't possible.) We added a little walkway from the front porch around the house to the back porch. We also were able to add some landscaping, I've wanted landscaping since the day we moved here 4 years ago. I am so amazed at what a difference it can make!

Annie decided to take Eli for a little stroll around the house. He actually thought it was quite funny.

We made it to nine months with this little man. It's actually flown by and been somewhat enjoyable because he is such an awesome baby!
