Final Countdown

We have scheduled the floor guys to come NEXT WEEK!  This means we are on a time crunch and still have so much to do!  Trim, closet doors, fixing windows, installing light fixtures and getting plumbing fixtures hooked up. The floors being sanded down and refinished is huge as this is the last big step before moving in!
After that we are basically set!  We are getting excited, but also feeling the pressure.  Scott starts his ICU rotation on Tuesday (going in almost every day with 30hr days every three days) so the timing is perfect as he will basically be worthless outside of the hospital.  I am so grateful for such a hard working, motivated husband.  He really has been such a trooper - working his shifts at the hospital and then coming home and working 4-8 hours on the house (or working those hours and then going into the hospital at night).  I am just so blessed to have such a stellar dude that I'm married to and had to brag a little at how well he provides for us.
Here are a few pictures.  All the details are coming together and we are slowly scratching off details on Vinnie's final list
.  
Trying to decide on paint colors...
Erica and Roman in bedroom #1 with the new paint (ignore the shelving to your right - it will be moved eventually)
Bedroom #2 - painting in progress (it's finished now)
Aaaaaand bedroom #3 - still need to scrape that window down and prime and paint it.
Putting our last craigslist appliance, the double oven, in - it was a beast to deal with, but is absolutely beautiful :)  If an oven can be beautiful...
Installing the hardware our neighbor found for us at a garage sale which we painted to coordinate with our kitchen.
Fans and light fixtures going in (don't worry - we'll put the blades on soon)
