It's almost February and the new bathroom is actually starting to look like a room... kinda. With the help of
Jonesy and Uncle Logan, we finally got the tub in this week.
As you can see, it's currently being used for insulation storage. The blue is a protective plastic it came in.
Jonesy came over again on Thursday and we prepped the room for drywall.
You can't tell much from this picture, but we spent the entire evening shimming the studs so that the wall would be straight. Some places were as much as 3/4" out of line. Luckily, most of the new walls needed no work at all. I'm sure it's because of the highly skilled carpenters that built them! The drywall showed up Friday afternoon and all day Saturday was spent hanging it. Wade and Grandpa were there to help Saturday and for once we got done more than I expected.
I would say I now have 99% of the plumbing and electrical done and about 90% of the insulation too. We've probably got half the drywall up, but most of the rest will be smaller pieces and will take more time. I'm hoping to have it all hung in the next week or so.
Now, the obligatory baby pics...
What a ham. The mere sight of a camera now instantly produces this face.

The angled ceiling above the (eventual) sink looks great...you did a nice job with that. Did you have to bevel back the edges of any drywall sheets, or did all the front edges just butt up against each other without fuss?
What's Nate's unsupported step count these days?
So sorry we forgot that bit of news. He's now mobile on two feet. He still gets down on all fours sometimes.
