Our First Home Project

We have been talking about putting hardwood floors in our house for a couple years. We decided to put our talk into action in January. 
 So we enlisted a couple helpers. :)
 Our neighbor helped also
 After all the carpet & tile were ripped up
 One of the most frustrating parts turned out to be getting the new baseboards at Home Depot. They were in 16' sections and wouldn't fit in or on top of our van. So we had to rent a truck, but it took so long to get situated that Trent had to leave to go do a funeral. I ended up maneuvering the 16' boards, the truck & my super pregnant belly. 
William ended up being born before we finished. We came home from the hospital and Trent went right to work trying to finish. We got the finishing touches when Trent's parents were here visiting.
 Here's the finished project, complete with William and our regular mess. :)
We did the dining room & hallway too, but I guess no pictures of those.
