Home renovation update!

Well, we are now 33 weeks, tomorrow starts 34 weeks and we are in crunch time! Little pea and home renovations are both progressing. They are almost equally exciting, but little pea outweighs home improvements by far!

Old wood floors. We realized they were not in good shape. Our plan was to just have them sanded and refinished...

but then I can home from work and found Ralph had decided to pull them up, and now our plan is new hard wood floors! The new floors will be a much better wood and definitely won't be so squeaky, so I am excited for the new floors, just another project...we're up for it!

and of course we need to change the hallway wall for better flow ... so Ralph tells me, either way, the wall is now down and back up (it does look much better!)

Installing crown moulding in little pea's room, we have pretty much picked out the colors, greens and blues..

Ralph has been home for 5 days and we have been up many hours trying to get as much done as possible. We have had help from some friends, my dad and our siding contractor, Todd. Ralph and Todd are outside right now building beautiful board and batten working shutters!
It is very exciting to see all the progress, we absolutely love it and can't wait to finish everything so we can enjoy it!

  1. Between Ralph and Marcelo we certainly married quite the handy men- I hope you will be able to come and visit once little pea has arrived.
