Week 8, Day 2

Today we have a few updates the build upon the day before, one new big ticket item, and a kid highlight!

All those little black boxes from Monday?  Now they ALL have wires running through them.  Three cheers for electricity!

Yesterday we had recessed lighting in the family room, now we have it in our bedroom and the master bathroom.  Lights!

Yesterday a section of the vertical beams was removed at the top.  Now that section is filled in with a new horizontal support piece.  If I'm not mistaken, this is the top of the opening that will exist here soon enough!

I turned around from looking at the support beam, and here is this mystery, shrouded in paper.  This looks BIG!
Drumroll please...

It's the fireplace!!

 Aside from the construction excitement, the kids kindly requested a bath with more bubbles!bigger bubbles!everything bubbles!  My easy answer to Bubble-topia?  The whirlpool tub.  Put some bubble bath in there, turn on the jets, and the bubbles multiply.  The kids don't usually take a bath in this bathroom, and I don't think they'd ever seen/heard the whirlpool jets.  Whirlpool + bubble bath + 2 bubble fanatics = bath bliss!

Before their hair is even wet, with just a regular ol' bath (that is really full so it reaches the whirpool jets).  Charlotte is practically swimming.

Hair is wet. We've done a series of bubble hats, moustaches, etc. Charlotte's pink face shows that the water is quite warm...

The blissful face of Bubble-topia.  Look at the surround of bubbles! This is post-whirlpool jets.  It was perfect!
