Shed Update #...?

It IS still happening even though we haven't updated the blog about it much... and to my untrained eye it looks like it's nearly there! Al's been spending quite a bit of time out there to get it done (isn't he wonderful!) and other people have still been helping out so I really do think we must be closer to the end. There's power out there (handy for when working at night - as he is at the moment), all of the gyprock is on, the internal door's in, the external door has been made a bit more weatherproof, and all the cornice has been put up around the ceiling. A lot of plastering has been done and as far as I know it's really just finishing the plastering and then sanding and painting and carpeting and putting stuff out there! :D Ooh and fixing up the guttering. And the bit around the window. Dave's coming round tomorrow to help, and I think Al's planning on spending pretty much all day friday and saturday working on it so we'll see how much is left to do then! We've talked about not painting it or anything at this stage so we can put things in the shed out of the baby's room so we can put the baby's things in the baby's room but we're both aware that if it doesn't happen now it will never be much of a priority. Still a number of days to go tho!

And of course the cutest 'shed helper' by far was Jacob this afternoon... He had a lovely time helping doing some 'banging' like Daddy and generally taking an interest in it all and exploring. Of course as soon as I made a move to get the camera it all stopped, so you'll have to use your imagination as to how cute they looked!
