We moved to Birmingham, Alabama after my husband’s job took him down south.
We picked out our house and I have been slowly remodeling it.
I started out removing the popcorn ceilings and painting every room. My husband redid all the flooring. We replaced the lights, outlets, and switches. We also sanded the wood walls and painted white. The master bathroom was gutted and remodeled. The kitchen got a huge facelift as well. The last space is our main family bathroom. I feel like that space needs to be remodeled asap. I am pregnant with our second child and I think that getting that last space taken care of is necessary. I don’t want a newborn around a bunch of dust and debris. Our oldest is about 1.5 years old and loves to be outside. So he will be good. I think the family bathroom remodeling will go pretty easy. I want to replace the laminate floor with tile. I want to change the tub and the tile around it. I also want to get a new vanity, countertop, and sink. The window should be replaced as well. Other than that, I feel it can stay. I want the same closet, paint colors, electric and plumbing set up. I don’t think anything major will need to be moved either. I am hopeful it will be a few months of work and some upfront money. It would be nice to upgrade that space to make it a more usable house. I might even splurge for bathroom ventilation.
