Construction Day 2

Sunday was more of the same...working on the nursery. Nick and I both got up and I started painting again and Mike came over to help Nick. They went to the hardware store and bought some drywall. They had to re-route some electric (good thing we know an electrician!) and then put the drywall up. It was a lot of work for them and they did a great job. Nick did a lot of the work himself since Mike left to go to the Ram's game (sorry it wasn't a winner Mike!) and Nick did so great. Especially by himself! Most of the drywall is up now. He needs to do another sheet and then he is ready to start taping the drywall. I can't wait until that is done and we can paint the new wall and get the door up. It will make it all so much more real once Dominick has an actual room. I'm really excited to get all the furniture in there and set up.

Here are a few pictures from Day 2:



This picture shows the electric Nick had to run for a new receptacle and two new light switches. Where the switches were, they would've been on the wrong side of the door and that would have been annoying so Nick moved the main switch and put in another in case we want to do some track lighting on the slant of the wall (which I think would be pretty cool!).



The drywall is up!!



Nick in front of the drywall. Doesn't it look beautiful!?!?!

I think they might be working on it some more tonight, but that entirely depends on how Nick's day goes at work today. He's in charge of a lot of stuff and sometimes he is so tired when he gets home. Hopefully today was a good day and he can get some more of the wall done tonight!
