The previous homeowner did not have the installed properly, so over time it had been letting moisture in which molded some of the baseboard, subfloor, as well as drywall. Lucky for us, our neighbor is Mr. Fixit and has a "Mary Poppins" garage with practically every tool you can imagine.

The hole is now patched now on to another "one-ism" project. Yes, we ran into a lot of "extra-isms" throughout the whole project. Patience, patience patience.

Once again it has been forever since I've posted anything. We have been so busy finishing our house project that I haven't had time for anything else. It was a lot of work and it took longer then we expected or ever wanted, but it was all worth it in the end. Not only does everything look awesome, it also got my mind off being pregnant for the past three months. The time flew by so quickly that I can't even believe I'm having this little precious girl in the next 3 weeks. Yipeee!!!

~The Start of It All~

Whoever thought that carpet was a good idea in the Diningroom, never had children!!

There it goes, finally!!!!

Preston's face says it all.

Because I was already 6 months along, I wasn't allowed to pull out carpet, but I did a dang good job at pulling out all 1 million staples that were in our floor. Lucky Me!!!

What a "Fun" surprise it was to find out that the patio door wasn't put in properly by the previous owner and therefore water had molded the baseboard, drywall and part of the subfloor.

About an hour later, we're finished with the carpet. Now onto the linoleum in the kitchen.
(Little did we know there were speed bumps ahead and we ended up living with the Diningroom this way for the next month.)

~The Kitchen~

Thank heavens the Linoleum came out really easy.

The subfloor wasn't too bad. Lucky for us they didn't put that much glue down.

Could this kid be any cuter!!

Out goes the stove, and onto the subfloor underneath.

Now to the subfloor under the fridge.

Now the cleanup. Abigail loves to help out especially when she gets to use our camping broom.
