House update - bathrooms

So we've been doing lots and lots of painting. What better way to spend the weekend when it's 110+ outside? I painted the downstairs bathroom and we switched out the light fixture. Like how warm and tropical it feels now.

The photos on the wall were photos we took when were in Hawaii. Most were from Maui, but one may be from our Turtle Bay in Oahu.

Then I moved on to Ryleigh's bathroom. This is the view from the playroom (which will eventually be Ryleigh's room).

Looking from the playroom doorway into the water closet. Her wall of bows. I think she has a few ;)

Shower curtain where all the colors came from. The green in the other part of the bathroom matches the green in the shower curtain perfectly. And the teal we used in the downstairs bathroom matched the curtain perfectly, so that's the blue we used in the other part of the bathroom.

Changed out those light fixtures too.

Closeup of Ryleigh's name. I painted the letters and flip flops with the same colors we painted the walls with. Put all those sample colors to good use!

Love how both bathrooms turned out. Now on to the guest bathroom!!

Come take a tour of our new house!

Now that we have all the furniture we ordered, I guess it's time for a tour. We're not completely unpacked, and we still need to figure out what to store and where it's going to be stored, but here's what our house looks like so far.

The den/office - aka. the unofficial storage room. We haven't found a desk yet for this room, so until then, the boxes will sit. We used this room as a dumping ground for boxes when we were moving in, so some of them are still there. But Chris's dad, Rusty, tackled the challenge of putting the ceiling fan up in the room with 14 foot ceilings. And it looks great!

Chris loves this piece of art and it fits pretty well in the niche in the entry. It's still growing on me.

Dining Room - We probably won't get a dining room table any time soon. It will be a great room to have the Christmas tree and all the presents for the holidays. We joke that it's our Christmas tree room. All the stuff on the wall needs to find a home in storage somewhere.

Laundry Room - Messy yes - still trying to figure out how to organize it.

Master Bedroom - We finally have a head board!!

We still have a ton of space between the bed and the dresser.

Master Bathroom -

Great Room - We had to paint the wall before the wall unit arrived so we didn't have to worry about moving the wall unit out of that niche. When the wall unit arrived, we found out the trim pieces on the top made it too big to fit in the space. So the guy is having the center credenza re-done to make it fit. So that tv isn't supposed to be sitting on the coffee table, there will be a center section to the wall unit in about a month.

Ryleigh's Room - This room will stay the nursery when we have another kiddo. We converted her crib to a toddler bed. She loves getting in and out by herself.

And out to the backyard... the pool is STILL not done due to the pool fence. Apparently the bars are supposed to be no more than 4 inches apart. On several panels it was 4 1/8" or 4 1/16" and near the posts it was up to 4 1/2". So they came out to redo the large gaps near the posts. And it failed inspection again do to the 1/8". So they had to come out and redo the entire fence and put in new panels. So hopefully this week it passes inspection so we can get the pebbletec done and fill it up!

All our landscaping got done this week. We still need some trees and plants, but the basic structure is there.

Hope you enjoyed the tour!

House is done!

We had our new home orientation/ walk thru on Thursday. While we'd snuck in several times in the past week seeing all the finishing touches be put together, seeing the finished product was pretty cool! They still have some little things to finish, paint and drywall touch ups, they need to install our reverse osmosis unit at the sink. They did the landscaping Thursday morning and it was done before we got there. They were working on our acrylic pool decking. The pool fence will be installed this coming Thursday.
