Time to prepare for the arrival. Our first project is the house flooring. Tam will install the flooring for the house himself (with the help of his dad, of course). 
Week 1 - Removing the carpet. The carpet actually came off pretty easily, revealing this funky flooring underneath. I actually can't do anything since I'm pregnant except for supervising Tam :-). He took care of removing all the carpet and the wall trim. It's the carrying out of the heavy Berber carpet that's the tough part.

Week 2 - Tam's dad helped us get started. He cut the edges of the wood to flush it against the wall. We figured we'd be finished with this room by the end of this week.

Week 3 - Tam finished the living/family room this week. He also got rid of all the tiles by our front door. It's so much work but his dad got him this dandy scraper to make it easier. Tam now complains of backaches. Poor baby! :-)
