First we had to take out the old kitchen units...
Then Martin knocked down the stud wall...
Then came the really fun job of stripping the old wallpaper and re-plastering the whole thing. Martin also built the closet during this stage, and we painted when it was finished...
The carpet was the fastest job of all. The underlay was down in a matter of minutes...
Now the carpet is down and we have started moving furniture back in and decorating the room. We've made some more progress since this picture was taken, but the camera battery died and I had to charge it up before I could take any more. I'll take some photos when we're all moved back in.
The nesting instinct is kicking in now that I am able to put things away. My favorite part of the room, other than it not being dirty and dusty, is definitely the built in closet. All of Dylan and Newbie's clothes have been put away. Even though there are no doors yet, it is so nice to not have to deal with a free standing wardrobe or chest of drawers. Built in is definitely the way to go!!!
We are getting our bedroom cleaned up now as well, since we are all moved back into our own rooms. I'm starting to feel much more prepared to bring a new baby home!
