Finally an update!

I'm finally ready to sit down and give an update on house progress over the past few months, including a few pictures :)

So ... let's see. The last update was showing the window trim on the main floor. I am still plodding away at caulking and painting those. It seems to take forever for each window, but it looks so good when it's (almost) done:


Peter has also built the returns (sills) for all the upstairs windows. The window in our bathroom is installed with the trim and caulked with one coat of paint. Two other windows have a coat of paint on the returns but are not installed with the trim yet. There is no hurry to get them installed as I'm still working on the downstairs ones.

Over the holidays Peter built and installed the rest of the kitchen cupboards, along with our microwave / vent hood combo (notice the pregnant belly sticking out there!):


Also over the holidays Peter installed the trim around the exterior days. They still need to have their corners finished, be caulked, and painted, but they look pretty smart just as they are:



The final thing we've been working on is the nursery! Yay! I don't have any pictures yet, but Peter has finished crack-filling the room and I got the primer on this week. The goal for the weekend is to get the ceiling painted and the first coat on the walls. I would also like to get two more windows caulked. We'll see.

Have a great weekend!
