House Update and Much More!

Okay, I know it's been WAY too long since I last posted pictures of the house. The reason why is because we've been over there every extra minute that we have working on the place. We usually don't get home until 11:30pm or midnight and fall into bed. Then Mark is up at 5am to get ready for work and it's go, go, go all day, and then run over there as soon as we get the kids in bed each night. The days have been flying by.
I have, however, taken many pictures, so I will post the progression that has taken place. We have been busy painting, painting, sanding, painting, staining, going to Menards, painting, going to Menards...you get the idea. I think we are some of Menard's best customers right now!

Follow along as we go through the house!

We'll start with Carter's room...
Carter's room is painted "Summer Fun Blue" with a "Victory Red" Stripe. We are painting all the trim white, but of course, that is not finished yet, so that is why the blue tape on the window.









Now we'll move on to Eden's room...prepare yourself...it's bright, but SHE LOVES IT!


Room fit for a pink princess! This is a VERY pink room. But most everything she owns is some shade of pink...every time she goes in it she says..."Thank you Mommy, Thank you Daddy!" I love it! Also, you'll see the sanded floors...more on that later.







As far as the third bedroom goes, we haven't done anything to that room yet. It has been tool storage, and a "catch-all" so far. We'll get to that next week maybe.

The bathroom is coming along nicely. This is what it looked like this past week...


and here it is now... it's hard to tell from the picture, but it is painted "skyline" which is a light blue/grayish color.


And last but not least is the kitchen (nothing to show in the living room and dining room yet).

Here is the kitchen at the beginning of this past week. Here you'll see the left part is painted. It's a light beige color...hard to see in the pictures.











Here is our new back entryway. The refrigerator also goes just after that wall sticking out on the left side of the picture.

Our cabinets were delivered this past week, so they have begun installing them. We may do a little switching around with some of them, but here's a start. This is the wall the sink and dishwasher go on.








And here's down the long wall on the right side of the kitchen. That's the back entryway in the background.









Okay, that's all the pictures I have for now. We're off to do the polyurethane on the bedroom floors now (and probably more painting too).
