I think it worked! We still need to put things on the walls one day, but I love our fresh blank canvas. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1497904431787-HSINIBTQXSQZAASIUB6Z/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Master Suite A peek at our future ladder wall to our future TV loft. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1497904782542-EP9982R3P8STBD6S1TLY/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Master Suite We use the Arm's Reach co-sleeper to keep Henry next to us at night.

James and I may paint the wood the same white as our walls, or we may just leave it like this forever!

Secondly, this will be a pretty cool bathroom once the tub is cleaned and literally everything else is changed about it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1441322527690-4T6ET49G7D3APQPJ4ZF5/IMG_4602.jpg Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1443129557919-YPCGPBFN00GT3WBS9D7K/image-asset.jpeg Images - Laundry Room When we pulled off the drywall covering the walls in the old half-bath and dining room we were greeted with extensive termite damage from an active termite infestation. Eek! We've treated for termites, re-plumbed the area, and decided to turn it into a laundry room. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1441322517750-PYY23Q65Q4CF5VLNPGDX/IMG_4637.jpg Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1443465495700-KUG6ELK75YX4JODUIDGP/image-asset.jpeg Images - Big Dog, Small Chair Sebastian has been very frustrated about his seating options lately, so he's taken it on himself to claim even the smallest of chairs as his personal seat. Eventually he'll have a couch to lounge on, but until that time he'll just have to content himself on smaller surfaces. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1441322533962-GJVFW0BG3B2GZO1GB0VI/IMG_5446.jpg Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1441322540198-EII9GFZ9KN6S0AHHBYZT/IMG_5628.jpg Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1441379768994-GZVRHMWQG1AY0PRF9IZG/image-asset.jpeg Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1441379825727-6ISY74TPLYSCJG9Z0248/IMG_5487.jpg Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1441379860454-YOJZ31IVGRXD7PXU2OBH/IMG_5677.jpg Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1441379845160-AO4EHCBY2VEVDCCTOJEM/IMG_5773.jpg Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1443129418403-DQ9SLS30DDG3J2XKLYA3/image-asset.jpeg Images - Back Door We've had a piece of plywood screwed into our backdoor hole for so long that we had almost forgotten what it was like to easily enter and exit through our backyard. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1443118317625-R5QI67BLESN3HKWIRB4Q/image-asset.jpeg Images - Bathroom 1.0 Our bathroom! Super stoked to have a working sink, shower, and toilet installed. Sure, we don't have hot water, haven't painted anything yet, and still need to buy most of our supplies . . . but it's here and it's ours. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1443118859966-2Q555GB1OETXSLYGVXCK/image-asset.jpeg Images - Moving Day - Living and Dining Rooms In case y'all had any doubts (hopes?) on the state of the house the day we moved in, let me inform you. Our house was still very much incomplete on the weekend we moved in. We prioritized the room we would be sleeping in, and were unable to finish much else, as evidenced by the state of our living areas. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1443119203736-95YTG45PJD1032AMK62N/image-asset.jpeg Images - Moving Day - Master Suite We're sleeping in the smallest bedroom until we can finish the master suite, so we'll probably be sleeping in another bedroom for a while. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1443119268679-17GJ7RDEOLTZ5H28H8WG/image-asset.jpeg Images - Moving Day - Kitchen Kitchens are expensive and we won't be able to finish ours for a while, so we're contenting ourselves with a few necessities for the time being. Sink, tiny counter, and dog feeder are all we need for now! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1443119388661-PR78DY83RENYQ2U0TEHD/image-asset.jpeg Images - Moving Day - Bedroom 2 We've moved most of the wood into the master suite (as evidenced by "Moving Day - Master Suite") so we are happy to see that this room really is a decent size. We're excited to work toward some level of completeness in this room over the next month or so. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1443119628846-TDOZVF6XDOCPPODJV293/image-asset.jpeg Images - Getting Comfortable We don't have any central air installed as of this posting, so we mostly hang out in "the cabin" with the curtains drawn and the window unit working on max. Sebastian has gotten very comfortable jumping on to the bed, where he gets the best air. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1443117504199-JX0TA78SVPAWCDKYR9C8/image-asset.jpeg Images - Sebastian checking out the bed We've really missed our bed and are super excited to be able to sleep on it again. We had hoped that Sebastian's new bed would mean that he would stop sleeping in our bed, but he still prefers our memory foam to his own. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1456110059582-V61X3MANV9LK3YH48F80/image-asset.jpeg Images - Building the Landing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1445627534641-M1J6F8NABJKXYR86XZ2B/image-asset.jpeg Images - AC Cage Woohoo we have air conditioning! We're worried about getting the copper stolen out of the unit, so we had a cage welded to keep it safe. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1456109811494-0ACIC3A853881OIPAK52/image-asset.jpeg Images - New Staircase Wall https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1456109866335-KZI4EITH62WQROPOPJ6T/image-asset.jpeg Images - Zebra Wall https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1456109924442-K72T4KYUENNBTO254OJN/image-asset.jpeg Images - Spots on Spots https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1456110271374-IBLM5RH2QBXPN0JEHPFW/image-asset.jpeg Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1456109636839-9HSO2XCAQJW9KUQ07UUH/image-asset.jpeg Images - Primer Coat https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1456110341777-42U7QNHOLJDAX5V1Y2D1/image-asset.jpeg Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1456109995313-ZLKD0R04D9HXZKJDI3OT/image-asset.jpeg Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1456110161910-AR3PK8C2GCIO56NI679W/image-asset.jpeg Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1456110207279-N0713OE0L54B4T0NXTB1/image-asset.jpeg Images http://www.southmoreproject.com/about daily 0.75 2017-10-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55e5b900e4b0ce91b198ccb7/1441118958051-A37FC1LXZ6DCSHPI825S/IMG_3817.JPG About
