Some Progress

We (Ok, I mean Seth) is making progress upstairs. His work has been SO busy (which we are very thankful for) and he has had to work many, many Saturdays. Working Saturdays means some extra money, which is always nice this time of year...but it also means less time with him and less time to work upstairs. Luckily they finished a big job and he can have some Saturdays off!!
Since I first told you about our project upstairs, we have made some changes! We decided that Dylan would stay in his room and Saylor would go in our room. That means Seth and I will be moving our room back upstairs. I have so many mixed emotions about this decision but ultimately we feel it is the best one. I now only have to worry about decorating one room, Saylor's! Dylan's will basically stay the same and ours won't be too much work!

So, it may not look like a lot has been done, but the wiring is basically done. Since Seth used to do electrical work, we got lucky on this part. Not only does he know what he's doing, but he was a little excited about it I think. He is putting some can lights in, and for some reason he is really excited about having them!!
When I went up to check on him last night I was hiding my camera behind my back. He informed me that he knew I had it, so there was no reason to hide it! He was also showing me how he measured the wire without a measuring tape. He needed 10 feet and he was only off by a couple inches. I guess I was supposed to be impressed!!! And let me tell you, I was!!! The things that bring grown men joy!
I love when I go up there and he is explaining to me what all the boxes will be used for and where this and that will be...I pretend to understand but really I have no clue what he's talking about. I trust him with these decisions. Just like he should trust my mom and I when we say that Saylor needs a chandelier in her room!!


I am keeping my fingers crossed that dry wall can start going up this weekend but I'm not sure. We are headed to KC Saturday so we will see what Sunday brings!
