Busy Week

It's been a busy week at the Taylor residence. We don't have Ethan this week as he is enjoying some holiday time with his mom. This gave Bob and I a chance to catch up on some unfinished projects. Remember how I was telling you about that chest that we want to restain? Well we are one varnish coat away from finishing it but it's been very tedious. It's looks amazing and so much more mature that before. Bob is so glad we chose to do this.

Next we are going to try and empty the basement out as much as possible. Which means using my lovely mother's house for some much needed storage as well as cramming as much as we can into the computer room.

My dad is coming for a visit this weekend to help us put down subfloor in our basement. A HUGE thank you goes out to him.

For every other weekend after that we will be pouring our lives into developing our basement in preparation of the coming baby.

I think the steps to take in completing this task goes something like this.

Put down subfloor
Finalize a plan
Get permits from the City
Move duct work
Frame walls
Call in electrician
Call in VacuFlo Guys
Dry Wall
Call in Taper/Mudder
Paint two coats of Primer
Paint Nadia's beautiful chosen colours
Lay down flooring (Carpet, Lino)
Add baseboards
Add bathroom fixtures
Add fixtures (plug faceplates, light fixtures)
Extend egress outside so the basement meets code

If anyone sees anything I missed please do tell me! I have thought about this so much I'm sure I've forgotten something.
