Massive progress has been made. The dry wall and shower surround are up. The new floor has been installed, just the trim work and edging are left. A few people have been asking if we are doing this ourselves... the answer is yes, although my inclusion in that we is debateable. Craig and his dad are doing all the labor and heavy lifting. I'm heading up the design team. We've probably saved thousands of dollars in labor costs by doing it ourselves, even though it's probably taking a little longer.
I am hoping that we'll have a functioning tub by tonight. Many also commented that they liked the tub details... the shower has it too!! I wasn't sure about it at first, but I really like it now! I also LOVE the flooring. It's from Pergo.. called Bleached Beech.
In this next picture, you can see the navy blue color we selected for the paint. I think it will look GREAT with the floor.
I'm just going to be glad when it's done. I know Craig will be too. Alex has watched altogether too much TV this weekend, but I have housework to do, so we can't be outside all day. I think we're going to get out of the house for a little bit today and go swimming at the Y. Just for a change of scenery.

Ya'll are making some great progress. And I love the wall color. One of the bathrooms in our old house was a dark blue like that.
Hang in there. You guys are in the home stretch. Daniella memorized all her Backyardigan tapes while we did both our bathrooms at once. Yikes!
Thank you so much for your sweet comment... I needed that today!
I do love the decorative touch on the shower and tub. Showers like that are so much easier to clean than the tile ones, no grout to scrub. Can't wait to see the finished project, it looks great so far.
