The Bathroom... a work in progress

Well the tearing apart is mostly done now. We are now running into some wiring problems as Elle's electical socket above her dresser no longer works... That slowed things down a bit today while Robb tried to solve that problem (still isn't solved).
The toilet is now gone too.


Robb actually got the tub in place today and the enclosure built for it - I will take pictures of that tomorrow, but for now here is a photo of Robb where my new tub will be. Notice the little access hole for the motor that will be reached through Elle's closet - she thought it was a secret passageway for her though!

Just a couple more pictures...

Seriously, my kids think I need to find some other guinea pigs for my lighting set up so if you are interested...



We managed to clean the kids' bedrooms out today. Pete tackled the boy's room and did an awesome job and I took on Elle's room... That girl has WAY too much stuff (I need to 'clean' when she isn't there - she didn't want to let go of much...)

Robb has been demolishing our main bathroom and in the next couple of weeks it will be going through a long awaited transformation! I should have taken pictures of Robb tearing out the old cast iron tub! Wow, that was a job and a half! All that stands in the bathroom right now is the stool and that will probably go tomorrow so that they can prepare the floor for tile. Robb will also build the new tub enclosure and drop in the new whirlpool tub. YAY! I am SO excited! I will make a point to take and post pictures - I promise!

Merry Christmas!

It is 11:00am and:
I had mint M&Ms for breakfast
The kids and I are still in our pajamas at - oh wait, Peter IS in jeans (the show off, but truth be told he probably slept in them!)
Robb is still sleeping (zzzzzzz...)
The kids are all cooperating!
I actually got TWO decent pictures to show you (and several others! Sorry Kristen, Craig - I had to do it!)
My house is a complete disaster area... oh wait, that is nothing new!
There are legos EVERYWHERE!
There are nerf darts EVERYWHERE
The kids have thanked us a million times!

Thank you God for this glorious day and the miraculous gift of salvation in Jesus Christ!
Blessings to all!
