Updated Addition Progress

Jeff had done a lot of work this week on the addition so this weekend my Dad came up to help Jeff with some final work that needed to be done on the addition.

Progress to the living room:

The drywall guys got the drywall done and Jeff is almost done painting. Next weekened he can do the finishing touches and we will put the living room back together.

The loft upstairs:

Last weekend Jeff and Nick did the electrical and other finishing touches and this weekend my Dad helped them put in the new hardwood floor. Jeff just has to finish up some baseboards and it will be complete!

Also next weekend we are going to add the finishing touches to the nursery and will finally post pictures of the completed nursery!

Some progress

Jeff had a lot of help on the addition this weekend and they made lots of progress.

Jon ready to work....ear muffs, tool belt and glasses required
The living room has a ceilingAnd the upstairs has a floor
The floor is done, but they still have lots to do! (wire the electrical, do drywall touch ups, paint, baseboards, crown molding and the list goes on)

And one more major accomplishment this weekend.....we decided on a hardwood floor. This has been a hard decision we ordered a bunch of samples, went to the store and were even trying to "age" some of them outside in the sun!! And then our neighbor and project supervisor suggested we do the same hardwood floor we have downstairs....what an idea...neither of us even thought about this! I think my preggo brain is wearing off on Jeff, if it wasn't for Nick's suggestion we would still be trying to "age" the samples outside in the sun!

Oh and Dr. Oz confirmed on Oprah that the prego brain really does exisit!!!

Addition

We're adding onto our house! You'd think we would have enough going on with having a kid in 2 months but apparently not. Jeff started demo last week and this weekend he started putting up the floor joist.( I think that's what they are! I don't help much....I just take pictures of them working.)

We are adding on a loft upstairs for the kids to have a game room and we can have a pool table in the living room.

This is my living room before
This is what the living room looks like now!

Hopefully someday soon I will back with completed pics of the addition and the nursery!
