Appliances

I have done really good about not going by the house everyday this week. I told myself I wasn't going to do it because in all honesty it was starting to drive me a bit crazy. So I went by on Tuesday and Thursday after dropping Logan off at school and I went by today because I knew the appliances were supposed to arrive.

First let me talk about yesterday. They FINALLY got that one last shutter up, so they will need to do the touch up paint on that and I didn't check it today because I was too excited to see the appliances, but I will check that out next week or have JR check it out. There are also some areas around the garage that I did happen to notice where they caulked that need to be touched up. Also, they FINALLY put the master closet door on. If you remember, they had to order a new one because they put it on wrong to where it opened into the clothes, so you would have to walk in, and close the door to get to the clothes. Halleluya, the new door is on....wait, ummm...HOLY COW BALLS they installed it wrong AGAIN! It isn't a huge deal, but now it opens outward. I will try to explain why this would be annoying (other than the fact that this is not how the blue prints are), but other than actually looking at it, it may be hard to visualize...
~ If you are standing in the bathroom in front of the toilet, you would be facing the linen closet straight ahead. To the right of the linen closet is the Shower, and to the left of the linen closet (across from the shower) is the master closet. So the "new" closet door opens outward into the linen closet, the linen closet door opens outward towards the shower. Basically it would be a very busy area with the doors.
So JR called the contractor, the contractor apologized and said he will get it fixed even if it means he has to do it himself. Seriously - who would have thought a door would cause so many problems???

Anyway, so as I arrived today, the appliance truck was leaving! Our appliances are in! So freaking exciting. The paint guy was there doing more interior touch ups and there was a lady there laying the transition pieces from carpet to tile, yada yada. I don't know if the appraisor has already been there or if he is coming later...I would hope he is coming later, since if he was there earlier that would mean that the appliances weren't in yet! Anyway...I took some photos with my phone...so here ya go...sorry - couldn't wait to share! JR is going to take some better pics with his phone (his camera is better than the one on my phone and his hands dont shake quite as much as mine) and they will be on facebook in a bit!

Stainless - French Door refrigerator, microwave, and stove!!!

In the left corner of the kitchen you can just see the corner of the dishwasher....and if you look at the sink you can just barely make out the water filter faucet that was installed yesterday! YAY It's so nice to have new matching appliances - I mean technically we have matching appliances now, they are all white, but I don't think the term "outdated" really describes them LOL!

Front loader washer and dryer...I looked at them for a minute and decided I am most likely going to have to read the owner's manual for those things!! LOL

So there you have it. It's been a good Friday. Now I have to finish cleaning up the house to get ready for baby Mark tonight. It's been a while since I have had a 5 months old for an entire night! So excited!
