Photos Released!!!

After searching the entire house for hours for the cord to download pictures, I gave up and checked amazon.com. I found a used one for 2 bucks. It arrived this morning so the pictures from the memory card and the camera's internal memory have been freed!

So I'll start with pictures of the baby's room being redone.
First a few before pictures:

Before redoing the floors





Jeremy hanging out with Jack and Cooper while the room functioned as a living room.

New walls:



Mud , Tape, and Sand:






New Ceiling fan and light light fixture:







Andrew, Joey, Joe, and Aaron made the trim then began putting it up:





Andrew did such a great job putting the doors' trim in that all of them now close all the way!!!








The living room progress began with new insulation (thanks Andrew for spending your Saturday in a white jumpsuit!)



Then the drywall went up. It is important to note here that when I went to bed one night some weeks ago, the living room had no walls. When I woke the next morning it did!!! Thanks to Corey, Joe, and Joey for staying up until 3:00a.m. (and a big thanks to their ladies for allowing them to stay out so late on a weeknight!)


Currently, Andrew is in the living room. He has mudded and taped and is sanding right now. Tomorrow he's planning on priming and painting the ceiling so he can hang the new fan.

The baby's room has been painted. We're waiting for the arrival of his dresser and I'm working on wall hangings and organizing all of his things this week.

Slow Going

I've just realized that we haven't posted in quite some time. It's not that we haven't done anything at all, because we have done a few things. Things outside of the house have been pretty busy. With school back in, Andrew has his hands full working on his thesis, taking classes, and teaching classes. Also, Two Way Radio has returned to the studio and is currently recording their second album. And with my severe dislike of the cold, I've been hibernating. So we have not been working too hard on the house lately.
In fact I can only think of two things right now that we've done in the last few weeks:
1) I started scrapping layers of paint covered wallpaper off the walls in the second bedroom and
2) I finally got tired of scapping the tar off the kitchen floors (probably because I can really only focus on scrapping one thing at a time without losing the ability to use my arms later and/or going insane) so I headed to Home Depot last Saturday while Andrew was teaching a class and picked up some of those wonderfully cheap stick-on tiles. Now we have a very busy black and white fake tile kitchen floor instead of a part hardwood part tar floor. Yay!
