April 6: deck floor started
We started on the deck floor today.
It's ready for the decking material now!
March 5: deck time
Today it's time to start working on the deck!
The boys worked on digging post holes and pouring concrete.
February 21: carpet
The flooring guys were here today.
The stairs and the open room upstairs are now covered in thick, soft, new carpet...
specifically chosen because it won't show dirt and kid muck.:)
February 18: ready for carpet
The floor and the stairs have been cleaned and painted with Kilz.
Time for new carpet!
February 16: upstairs flooring
We've ripped out the old carpet in the open room upstairs and down the stairs.
Time to start prepping it for new carpet!
Time to start prepping it for new carpet!
I didn't take pictures *before* the Sahara-Desert-worth of sand was sucked into the ShopVac...
Here are the *after* pictures.;)
Here are the *after* pictures.;)

January 31: tile-ready
The floor in the new room is now tile-ready!
The tile is scheduled for delivery at the end of the week.
(And, apparently, my camera lens is scheduled for a spot cleaning.)
January 22: prepping for tile
We started putting down HardiBacker to prepare the floor for tile.
And, again, my two sentries keep eye over the supplies.
January 9: bedroom flooring begins
We started on the floor in the upstairs bedroom...
the part around the closets will be saved for another night!
January 1: a new year
We know how to throw a party!
To start 2011, my man started hanging gutters on the addition...
...and he raided the shed for leftover laminate flooring.
Blessing #6 has designated herself sentry to the boxes.
And when she's not working, Mowgli dutifully keeps watch.

December 22: fan club!
Today was fan day!
...in the new room...
...in the entryway...
(whoa! Crazy CJ way up high installing a very big fan!)
...and in the attic room...
December 21: opened up
Today they took down the temporary board
that was in the old kitchen window....
that was in the old kitchen window....
This was, of course, the one day I hadn't gotten
the dirty dishes into the dishwasher!
the dirty dishes into the dishwasher!
Plastic came down, too, and everything is all opened up!
Getting ready to repaint the old bedroom....
A before picture of our window in the entryway...
The collared-up cat hanging out on the saw table!
