Construction Update for the rest of this week

Thursday saw the insulation guys coming in. They were able to get the insulation up in 30 minutes! Mark opted to have them install it due to the time constraints we were under. The drywall guys came in towards the afternoon. They got all the drywall up and the mud and tape were supposed to go up on Friday. However, since we are being "worked in," we were bumped to Monday.

There was a big oops! that happened on Thursday but luckily it was before there was a major oops! Mr. Bill thought that since we had a heat pump, our ducts were in the floor...they're not...they're all in the ceiling. He rushed over between the insulation and drywall and put up the air ducts...pretty quickly. The ducts aren't completely hooked up yet, but will be soon.

Mark and I got in and cleaned out all the dust/debris in the afternoon on Thursday. Thursday night we had a date and went to eat at a burger place (a nice and yummy one) and then spent 2 hours shopping in Lowe's! It was a lot of fun and we were able to do it uninterrupted. We got all the tile and flooring and some bathroom accessories for our bathroom and light fixtures for the closet and the boys bathroom entryway.

I spent all afternoon on Friday getting the plans together for our closet and then this morning, we all headed out to look for a piece of furniture for our bedroom. We are going to get rid of our busted up dresser that I've since high school (one of the drawers is literally falling out) and the armoire (back to my parents) and replacing it with one dresser. Since we'll have the big closet, we will not need a lot of furniture in our bedroom (which is good because it's not a massive bedroom to begin with).

I'm not even guessing what is up for next week and trying to just take it one day at a time. I will say that we are waiting on the drywall to be finished and then comes paint/tile (we'll paint, they'll tile) and then flooring...that's as far as I'll go.

Okay, on with the pictures!

Pre-drywall with the plumbing and electrical installed.

Electrical...our bathroom fan!

This is plumbing for our shower/bath...it's on the closet wall to help with repairs if ever needed (we won't have to tear up the siding to get to it).

Only one entryway into the boys bathroom now...it's through the hall! Yippee! Ace stuck his hands in the glue they were using for the drywall and thought it was peanut butter :)

Part of the master bath drywalled!
