Remodeling and loving life

Let me start off by thanking my baby girl Camryn for sleeping all night last night!!  Woohoo!!  Those are few and far between so they are definitely praise worthy.  She is the best little girl in the world I swear.  So sweet and easy to handle...at this age, anyway.

So we are kinda into our remodel but not too deeply yet.  We are trying our best to take it one project at a time.  But some days I just open a can of paint and get after it.  I am not what one would call a real patient person.  I kinda like when things move right along.  So I did just that yesterday and painted the hall bath an awesome red color.  I wish I had taken a before picture but I didn't think about it.  But it was pinstriped wallpaper before and here it is now...
Still taped off but you get the color.  It's hard to get great pictures of a hall bath.  Also, I'm not real artsy so I'm making Rob paint the stuff close to the ceiling.

I've also spent some time painting the trim from wood color to a cream/off white which we are LOVING!!  It's so pretty.  I tried a small part of the dining area to make sure we like it but it's too much work for me to handle, so we are gonna have to hire that done.  Here's a small area I did.  Oh and Rob painted the walls yellow in the dining area and green in the kitchen.  Fantastic!


And here is where we cut out the wall to make space for a bar top.  Obviously we have not mastered painting real close to the ceiling yet b/c we keep putting that off :) 


We are also gonna get new countertops put on and the cabinets painted black with a glaze over them.  And all the trim you see will soon be that creamy white color.  We cannot wait!!  How about my little princess getting her beautiful self in this picture.  Cute, huh :)

So life is good in our home.  The boys are loving it so much here with so much room to roam.  They are big helpers when Rob is working outside.  Mom, dad and Grams came by last night and checked things out.  Had a great visit with them and the boys are so excited when they come to our house.  It was a wonderful evening!
