Babies and Remodels...

Wow! I feel like it has been FOREVER since my last post! I am sure my biggest blog fans...aka Sawyer's grandparents...are just besides themselves;)
Well anyways, this past weekend we started the looming project that has been waiting to be done since we moved in over a year ago...the bathroom!:) Ugh just saying the words "bathroom remodel" makes me cringe inside! The idea was to remove the walk in shower and replace it with a tub/shower combo for Sawyer since he will need to take baths before showers. We made the informed decision to get this project going around 8:00 am Saturday morning! Now being that we did not plan ahead left us with the challenge of remodeling with our almost 5 month old! Oh surely he will sleep...right? Um big ol negative on that! Could you sleep in one room while the room next to you was being torn apart with a hammer in the hands of your certified, over achiever, get er done style of father? I think not! Picture this...baby screaming while the hubs and I are maneuvering a shower/tub combo special from The Home Depot down a narrow hallway into a relatively smaller bathroom! At one point I was literally pinned in the tub area while Daniel was yelling for me to push one way and I was saying pull another! Needless to say it was a hot mess but we managed to get it in and I was able to then tend to the sweet boy while Daddy finished the plumbing and such in the bathroom! Luckily, Grandma Debbie came to the rescue around 8:00 pm and we were able to get it completely installed and start putting up the new drywall...and by "us" I mean Daniel...with a small amount of help from me:) 
Ended up not picking up the boy until 2:00 AM SUNDAY morning!!! And yes he wakes up at 6:00 AM!! What a long weekend!! Hopefully we can finish the drywall and paint this weekend and we will have one more project in the books around here! 
Bath anyone?? Don't mind the 5 gallon bucket of drywall mud that is sitting next to you while you try and relax! 

Yes I am living in a hot mess right now! And...I am too ashamed to post a picture of my vanity at the moment! Before and after pictures will be up soon....hopefully anyways!!;)

Xoxo! Have a blessed day!
