...and yesterday...

The Quoins were added...
The verandah was added...
The plumbers worked on the stormwater
The Tiler completed the main bathroom walls and began grouting the Kitchen splashback.
The Painter worked on the main living area....and painted in some feature walls....
The Electrician even showed up for a few minutes...
The Cabinet maker phoned to check on the profile and colour of the robe doors...
The tank is to be delivered on the 3rd March.... not bad seeing as Pat ordered it weeks and weeks before christmas.
Ian and I began our carpet choices..... we are thinking a rich chocolate in the lounge... and a dark coffee colour for the bedrooms.... our first quote should be back today.....
... I just love how rich this wall in the lounge room came up......
....and this one in the living room was too pale......so we have another triple strength coat coming up on here..... love that colour though....

Wow...things are moving along fast...

...and I haven't been keeping up with blogging it very well either.....
So here is where we are up too.....
The Bricklayer has finished.... it looks just as we imagined..... only the cream quoins to be added and its done.
The Painter is making amazing progress.....all the ceilings are almost complete..... and the majority of the house has had an undercoat. I chose some colours today for feature walls in the family....lounge and main bedroom.... that will be exciting to see.
The Tiler has been there two days....and OMG.... the bathrooms and laundry are taking shape.... and the kitchen splash back is done..... it looks just as we imagined and the glass mosaic tiles I was nervous about ....look wonderful too.
The Builder...is adding the verandah on the front today.... and finishing off eaves.... doors and door fittings...
The Plumber is there this morning working on the storm water pipes and drainage....
The cabinets makers have fitted all the cupboards and there is just a few robe doors and finishing jobs to do...
so...here are a few piccies...... the main bathroom... ...the laundry....
....my kitchen....that Im so rapt with.... cant wait to see the rangehood canopy up on the wall....and the tiles grouted.
.....the ensuite bathroom...
.....another view of the kitchen....
... Im looking forward to taking some more photos tonight..... the verandah will be finished....and the tiler will no doubt amaze us once again...

ooops....forgot to post..

...and a few things have happened...
The Bricklayer is almost done....another week and Im sure he will be finished.... its looking wonderful.....and we are so pleased we chose the red brick.... cant wait to see the quoins added. The Gyprockers have finished this evening..... I cant believe they worked all weekend ... and as Ian left there tonight at 7pm...they were sweeping up the floor ... so all the cornice is up....and all the flushing complete... ...tomorrow the painter arrives.... so it will all gets its first coat.....it was actually fun working out the colour choice the other day..... and I hope it looks ok on the walls.

Ian and Brent managed (with my help) to get all the air conditioner duct into the roof.

Ian has shoveled dirt.... shoveled dirt.....shoveled dirt.... and finally got the shed floor filled...level...packed down...boarded up and ready for concrete.
