Progress




Not sure why Doug is plugging the grinder into Levi right there, but at this point.....who cares?
Levi and I having a little fun with the insulation.
Insulation is up and skylights are framed in. 
And, this part really sucked.  The floor has a million nails in it.  If we were lucky enough to get a piece of the floor that was bigger than 2 inches, there was cause for a celebration!
Ma and Pa doing celebratory floor dance.
There must be some home-improvement rule that you can only hang drywall at 3 a.m. 
Who has two thumbs and loves hanging drywall?   LEVI!
Doug mastering the masonry saw. 
The small window is out.  My mom and I cleaned the old mortar off the bricks today and we should be getting the new window in soon.  
Doug stayed up until around 6 a.m. yesterday morning and mudded the kitchen.  The dude is a die-hard.  He has been on "vacation" this week.  I know for a fact that he got less than 3-4 hours sleep each night, but the amount of work that guy accomplished is crazy. 
Another view of the kitchen and dining room.  These two walls will be taken down. 
I had to add this beautiful pic of our girl taking a nap.  She sleeps right through the drilling, hammering, and sawing.
