Since I'm going so long between posts now, it's hard to remember everything that is getting done. We finally set a date that we want to be in the house. Who knows how realistic it is. I'm just going to imagine that we are getting evicted on a certain day and have no other choice to move in. It gives everyone more motivation, I think.
This is when I was trying to pull out rusty nails from old hardwood flooring. Impossible. Of course Josh tried and made it look easy.
I painted the sides of the kitchen cabinets after we got the paneling up. They need more coats and I forgot to do the ones on the bottom and we have to pull the fridge out to get the last one on.
Josh installing the door frame for the pantry.
I sanded and spray painted the old canister lights for our living room. The middle one is sanded, so you can see how bad they started out.
I don't have pictures from last night, but Josh and I seemed to have gotten a lot done. We put up 2 bedroom doors, but still need to work on their frame. I put the final coat on the hallway and painted some more side panels of the cabinets. Josh was cutting tiles for the dining room. Since I wanted a herringbone pattern, he has to do a bunch of weird angles against the wall. We also got out replacement vent hood (the last one was majorly dented after delivery) so he started mapping that out on the wall.
Tomorrow is Penelope's 3rd birthday and she's having a party, so I stayed home and got ready for that. My dad and mom went over to cut the base boards. Then my dad put up trim around bedroom doors and my mom painted closet doors. Josh has been working on smoothing out the kitchen counters. He will finish that up tomorrow, hopefully. I would like to go and work more tomorrow since it is the weekend, but it's also Penelope's birthday, so I don't know. Maybe if I can get her to take a nap after her party ;)
