This week marks my last contribution to work on the NH house. I am spending the evenings/nights stripping and now painting the built in drawers/doors for the diningroom built-ins. Monday and Tuesday I got the stripping and sanding done. I also got them primed Tuesday night. Now they are getting painted and should be ready …
This weekend was the last weekend I plan to go out to the house to work! We’re busy the month of may and with the baby coming I won’t travel out there in June. Ryan and Dad will go out next weekend to do the floors upstairs and Ryan will stay and finish a few …
This week has been a bit exhausting – at 31 weeks pregnant, once I’ve worked a full day and picked up the little one from daycare, then fed her (and us usually), I really just want to rest. HOWEVER there are things to do! This week I got the 3 closet doors that we brought …
Not really long as in longer than 2 days but long as in it felt very long. We got an early start Friday, hitting the road at 5pm and getting to the house by 8! I put the munchkin to bed and Ryan got started grouting the master bathroom! I cleaned paint off the master …
A mid-week visit up to the house for some appts and I have a few more pics to share and a tiny bit of progress updates as well. First some more pics of what was done over vacation … The painting continues smoothly and he will be finishing up what he has time for this …

Well this past weekend was most likely the last weekend we’ll go out kid free – the next weekend we go out is for our ‘vacation’ so of course we’ll bring Alex (plus it’s her birthday weekend!). After that we’re getting close to the end of what I can do anyhow as I get further …
This past weekend we went out to work on the house but had Alex so that left Ryan doing most of the work and I got naptime and tvtime to work a bit on electrical. First Ryan started by attempting to install the master bathroom door however it doesn’t fit in the old frame …
Last week my brother-in-law came out and finished up the rough-in-plumbing for our master bathroom! It’s almost ready for inspections, we want to get the rest of the cement board down on the floor and I need to hook up the wires to the fan and probably hook up the exhaust pipe to the fan …
We are on an every-other weekend schedule going out to work on the house and this weekend Alex stayed with her grandparents so we could go out by ourselves and make more progress! It was a productive day and a half for sure. Saturday Ryan worked on trim all day – starting with the master …
