It would seem that my dream of having the bathroom done when I got home, was exactly that, a dream.... oh well. There seemed to be a miss communication about the exact location the drain pipes needed to come out of the wall for the vanity which meant there had to be some changes made to the plumbing inside the wall, so instead of ripping out the brand new drywall to fix the pipe location, Chris decided to gut the room next to the bathroom and access the pipes from the back side. I know I know, one step forward two steps back. By the time I returned home from Vegas the mess was cleaned up and most of the room was ready for drywall. Then with my encouragement he gutted the bedroom across from the bathroom.... may as well make the mess worthwhile :) So needless to say, the bathroom is almost ready to have the water turned on YEAH! Hopefully this weekend I can have a bath in my new tub! I still need to have a linen closet and medicine cabinet made by the cabinet maker, but that will come with time... perhaps lots of time as he just had knee surgery this week. Patience is a virtue they say.... maybe by the time our house is done I'll have some. I'll keep you posted on the progress of the bedrooms....
I'm sure my mother just about has a nervous breakdown every time she thinks of the dust and mess I'm putting up with, but I knew when we bought this house what I was in for, so I figure we may as well get it over with.
Today we had some exciting news... Chris's sister Loretta had a baby girl this morning. Gloria Marie made her entrance at about 6am weighing in at 7lbs 8oz. Both mom & baby are doing well and resting in Stratford Hospital. It will be fun to watch Loretta figure out the whole Mom thing. I just took this picture of her on Monday... nothing like cutting it close. Isn't she lovely!
Congratulations Retta & Derek! We can't wait to meet Gloria!
