*Sigh*

I knew remodeling the house was going to take a lot of work and be stressful, I just didn't know all the drama that was going to accompany it and how emotionally draining it would be.
It's not really helping that I've further complicated things and now we sort of have deadlines we'd like to meet and all that. ☺
I have to try really hard not to worry about the fact that I have a baby due, the end of a lease looming all in the same month, and a house that may not be done in time.
Anyway, some of the conflict has been resolved (for now, until the next one crops up) and work has begun again.
All but 3 or 4 windows have been framed.


Most of the walls are up and nailed in. I think that this closet near the back door still needs to be nailed in, and the master bathroom still has to be re framed. (we changed the plans).

Bedroom #1, with the new window framed in.
(for those that know how this house used to look, this where the bathroom/ kitchen were.)
The window on the right side of the picture, where the closet and bathroom are, will be boarded up.

Master bedroom with the closets up and window re framed.

The front door has been moved, window has been moved and re sized.

I can see how that would be stressful - especially with the babe arriving at that time. It's lookin' great by the pictures. I hope progress moves faster for you

Looks like they have done a lot of work. I hope you don't stress to much. It can't be good for you. You sure have a lot going on all at once.

When might you find out if you are having a girl or a boy? I am looking forward to hearing what you are having. So excited to see what he or she will look like. I wonder if you will a brunette after having a blonde and redhead.

So, you did end up moving the front door, eh?? Did you find something to work that you were okay with??

Jenny- the next phase is plumbing and electrical. I'm not holding my breath about it going faster. lol.

Valerie - I find out on Monday what I'm having. ☺ I'm trying NOT to stress, but sometimes it just happens.

Rose- We moved the door to our original plan, not 3 feet over like some people wanted us to change too.
