bathroom

The downstairs bathroom has been started. Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of the bathroom before it was gutted....bummer. This is what it looks like now.

Ok, so it's not completely gutted, but the left side of the room is. I am sure that you all remember the wall on the left separating the shower and the shelving unit. Doesn't the bathroom look so much bigger without it? Oh, and you know what I am excited about getting rid of? The old shower with all of the butterflies attached to the walls. Ha ha. J.E. (the contractor) ran into a few minor problems....the pipes above the shower (which also are connected to the bathtub in the middle bathroom) were leaking. He said that they were done wrong and he wouldn't be surprised if they have been leaking since the house was built. Yikes. The shut-off valve to the toilet was also broken. Other than that, he has been working on moving the plumbing slightly to fit the new shower. Then he will also install a new toilet and vanity.
