Construction Update (2)

The past 2 weekends have been quite exciting on the house project. We have about half of the floor joists up in the attic and placed (not secured yet, we had to revise our detail) and are now ordering the rest of the wood for the floor- which will arrive this coming Saturday. Jesse is hoping that their is no baby to interrupt the delivery of his lumber! The stair opening has been framed out and about 80% of the demo that goes with the stair is complete. The ceiling is out, most of the walls are down and we only have a few existing headers to remove. The house is a dusty mess- but it looks cool!
