Sprinting

Since the drywall has been hung I feel like we are sprinting toward the finish line. If we don't move quickly, it's almost as if it might never get done! The priming and first coat of paint is on and the hardwood floors are being installed (they expect to be done by tomorrow). Trim is also starting to go up. There is so much activity that the work site is a bit unsafe for kids (lots of saws laying around). They have not seen their rooms painted so I promised to take a few photos today. Here's the master bedroom. They currently have brown paper over the floors to protect them while the trim guys are working on site.








Here's Matt's room. It's a little more green than the photo shows and is two tone in color. They boys all picked such strong colors that I had to lighten it with accent colors on some of the walls.






Here's Allie's room. It's a mirror image of Matt's and it's not too big, but it's quite a lovely shade of lavender.







Here's Pete's room. I think I'm going to get a window seat put between the two closets.


This one is Sammy and Tommy's room. It is the biggest bedroom and is a two-tone blue.

This is our living room under construction and quite dusty.


Here's our "guest room" with the flooring finished but not yet covered.

Sorry, I have no witty quips, just a boring housing update. Is it possible we could be done by March 15th? Probably not, but maybe April 1st. *fingers crossed*

Have them put in a HOLLOW bench under the window for hidden storage in Pete's room. Trust me, you won't regret it.

I'm totally for the window seat, great idea!

Good luck!!!! When it gets this close it's almost painful!
