We've been busy. Every extra minute we have has been spent outside tending to our siding. Scrape. Scrape. Scrape! Prime. Prime. Prime! With had the help of my MIL, which has been sooo great, we have accomplished so much! Our typical scraping/priming day looks like this:
10:00 am C's morning nap
10:00 am WORK WORK WORK. (with MIL)
12:00 pm Wake C is he's not already up. Stop working.
3:00 pm C's afternoon nap.
3:00 pm WORK WORK WORK. (with MIL)
4:05 pm Tom gets home. WORK WORK WORK.
5:00 pm C gets up. (Tom continues to Work! till 8pm)
Note: my WORK schedule depends completely on little Coulter. If I were to work outside painting with Coulter by my side, he would QuIcKlY scatter into the street with his most favorite things right now: CARs and Trucks! Not a good idea! But I have made the most of his nap times this week, letting a few things slide inside.
Here's how it looks so far!!!


I hate to watch Tom working on this tall ladder. Scares me!! WE have about 1/23 of the house primed. The peek opposite of where Tom is painting is kinda tricky!

It's looking very nice. I guess we will get to see it firsthand tonight. I am glad you posted the pictures, now we won't accidentally drive by your house!(HAHA) :)
busy family you are!
Caleb pressed 'Enter'.....so anyways, looks good! when do you break ground on the new house, or have you already? exciting! are you planning it to be done before baby thone enters the world?
Steph,
Primer is white. WE are not going with white for the top coat. You will have to wait and see.
Sara,
Looking forward to tonight. Sorry I have been in touch this week--- we've been busy!!
Shelly,
No breaking ground yet. And no it won't be done b4 baby 2. Maybe by a miracle though. That's ok...adds more spice to our lives!
That would be a miracle if your house was done by baby #2. I would have to say that would be one of the fastest houses Jason has gotten done then! :)
What a no-fun, time-consuming job. But looks like you guys are doing good- keep it up. And thanks for passing along the recipes.
