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 …
Our last chunk of insulation is done! If you don’t count the windows – we’ll have to insulate around the windows ourselves with cans because their sprayer was broken but we weren’t charged for it so no biggie.

While Alex napped on Saturday (2 naps) Ryan got the ceiling of the master bathroom, small bathroom and laundry-room upstairs all demolished.

What a strange weekend we had. Saturday I was feeling so much better from my cold finally so we worked on the house (knowing we had only one day this weekend since Ryan had a bunch of work work to do on sunday). First we ran to the dump to drop off the final loads …
It’s a new year – and how did we spend New Year’s Eve? Well working on the house of course! We determined that the upstairs diningroom/master bathroom floor had way too much movement to hold a new bathroom at some point. Just Fitz walking across made it sway (not good for grout). So today we …
The holidays are over and the house work begins! That’s how we like to bring in the new year. Ryan didn’t get to take the week off so while I was home by myself Tuesday and Thursday I worked on emptying out the upstairs diningroom and cleaning the house (Wednesday was a stitch day with …
