The stairs are done!!! The construction part at least. There is still some finishing work of the wall Tyler built that needs completing as well as the laying of the carpet on the stairs. The basement is mostly cleaned up, I'm waiting to do any heavy cleaning until all the finish work is done. The important thing is that the washer and dryer are in the laundry room as of one week ago! I think I have done like 12 loads of laundry since they have been up and running ;) I had lots of baby clothes to wash!
We had the help of a good friend of mine from college and her husband to clean up the basement and bring the washer and dryer down stairs, that happened the night of my baby shower, Sept 7th. But we then quickly figured out that there was a problem with the ductwork from the dryer and also a leak in the handles that turn on and off the hot and cold water going to the washer. So after a few days and some work from Tyler on the ductwork and a visit by a plumber (thank you home warranty) we were in business!! And boy am I glad to have a washer and dryer in my own home! I don't think I'll ever take doing laundry in my home for granted ever again!
Here are some pics of the downstairs and the laundry room :D
Completed Stairs
View of basement from staircase- this will probably be our "family room" when everything is said and done
Laundry room/downstairs bathroom!!! yay!

Around the corner from the last pic- this might end up being Tyler's office, if all goes well. But it's looking like it might not work out to have his office downstairs. :(
Cupboards in the back of what we will call Tyler's office. There are three cupboards this size (almost floor to ceiling), I can't wait to organize all of them! They are about a third of the way full at the moment.
