picture dump!

garage finished getting drywalled in january. there's still one piece that has to go up that's under the trap of tub, we just need to double check that nothing leaks on the tub and the last piece will go up and it'll finally get mudded some time starting after next weekend and then tools can start getting more organized and not be anywhere and everywhere all over the house :)

 

tile around the tub and backsplash got done and the tub got dropped into its home in april. its all grouted just has to be sealed. half the bathroom is painted, just waiting for DH to put up the board on one side of the shower so I can finish the last corner of mud and finish painting the bathroom. loving the tile we picked and the colour on the walls

primer makes quite the difference!

the texture on the upstairs ceilings also got done in april and that really started making it feel like we were actually going to finish the addition soon.

stairwell lights going up and the platform finally came down right after they got installed! it made painting the top of the stairwell a million times easier and also made it easier to install the light. DH still ducks his head going up the stairs after about 8 months of having the platform up, lol. I never had to duck cuz it was just high enough I only ever brushed my hair against it ;)

the last of the carpet and other demolition in the house! (end of april)



did majority of the underlay myself (DH helped screw down 2 or 3 pieces, lol) so that everything was all at the same level once the carpet went in (beginning of may)

the last of the ugly green got primed over!!!

the few bits of furniture out of the way for the carpet installer. the underpadding done (mid-may) and the paint got done in the hallway (april)

we're loving the colour we picked for our new bedroom :)

hayhay's been loving having the carpet in cuz it means the floor is much more comfortable than the bare floor she's had for over a month :P

our picture and mirror reassembled. the lights probably could've been installed a little higher, but we'll leave them there for now, maybe some day next year, lol

new bedroom! still waiting on our new comforter set though :( its so awesome going to bed in this now. I just wish I didn't have to walk back to the other bathroom or our old closet for clothes...
