Total remodel job

[shan]

They are getting people together and should have the roofing (and maybe the siding) done this weekend!! Then we have people coming in to do the plumbing, electrical, and drywall. It is coming together!!

I found some border that matches K's toy box perfectly!! Disney 4.1 In. H Pink Princess Castle and Tiara Border - WC1284897 at The Home Depot


I was really excited about that! I now I need to find some curtains!

I think I would go with a medium colored tile. Too light or dark and it will show every little piece of grass/dirt, anything that gets tracked in.

I can't believe how fast it is coming together!! That is so awesome!!

Here is a crazy off the wall question.... what if you have more children some day? Can you add on or is Karma it? Just curious.

[shan]

CC~ Thanks! I think I might go with a gray color, but I will know more when I actually get up to the store to get sample. I plan to do that today.

Heather~ This is our starter house. We are staying in this house around 3 years. So if we have another child while living here we are going to put them in with K. Then when we pay off the loan (in three years) we're going to sell the house and buy a bigger house in the country. We plan to have 4 kids.

cool thats a great idea. I thought you had said you wanted more but then I thought well I could be wrong...lol

Heather most people look at us like we are crazy when we tell them we would like four kids. We knew when we bought the house we wasn't going to be living here forever. Of course it is bigger now than what it was before.

I am so excited!! I found a lot of matching furniture for her room!! Here is the link Always A Princess Room by Levels of Discovery, Princess Room Furniture The toy box is what we already have and what I am basing the room on. I love the fact there is so much more to match the toy box!! I don't know if I am going to get the stuff right away or make them gifts for birthday/christmas. I might see if we can swing the table and chair set or the rocker for when we move in. That would be great. I have been trying to find a bed set and curtains that match the theme and so far haven't found anything.


I have just now found a bed set to match the theme!! Lil' Princess 4-piece Twin-size Patchwork Quilt Set from Overstock.com

Those are adorable. If I had a girl she would defiantly have a Princess room

I know Heather isn't it so cute? I wish I was more artistic then I would paint a mural in her room, but it still is going to be a cute room! Yesterday dh took some pictures before they started. He took a bunch!! So I will get those up!!

[shan]

Some took inside the house.

Here is pictures of before they started yesterday:

FYI: I was talking to my FIL last night and he said he made it so that we could add two bedrooms upstairs and put the staircase where the living room closet is. So if we end up staying in the house for longer than we planned it wouldn't take much to do that. That is good to know that we have that as an option.

They are just awesome at this housebuilding stuff....lol I can't believe it is going so fast. Good job to them!!!

[shan]

Thanks Heather. I think they are doing great. Once we move in though they are definitely going to need a vacation! One of our soon to be neighbors said that since we started working with the house people have been slowing down to see what is going on at the place. Now that we are getting so far they have had a couple of almost accidents because of people staring at the house. Here are pictures of before they started yesterday:
