Y’all. The flip is finished. It just hit the market. I am pumped.
Legitimate before and afters coming soon, I promise!
We spent the weekend cleaning the flip from top to bottom, equipped with a backpack vacuum, razor blades, Magic Erasers, mops and all sorts of other cleaning-type stuff. It was just about the least fun I’ve had in awhile. My mom can attest that I might have had a slight meltdown during the never-ending process of clutching a razor blade in my handclaw and scraping wood stain off those 8 little beveled windows in the front door.
However, a huge bright spot in all that not-fun was our little helper.
How could you not smile when you see that face?? She is so darn cute I can hardly stand it. :)
Some of you have asked how we still manage to get things done with the flips now that Peanut’s in the picture. Well, it’s pretty simple – for the most part she just tags along with us, like when we hit up the tile store or Sears.
( She was an excellent Vanna White next to the stove we bought for the flip. )
And sometimes, of course, one of us stays behind and watches her at home while the other tackles whatever we have on the agenda at the moment.
It can get a little tricky at times (like around nap time), but we make it work for the most part. I think it will be fun to look back when she’s a little older and tell her how she’s been helping us flip houses since she was born. :)
( Here she is at 2 weeks old over at our last flip. )
But enough about that – who’s ready for more flip pictures? Me! Me!
The front door is so inviting! And your daughter is a cutie!
I’m ready for the flip pics, but what I really want is more pics of your daughter — she’s super cute!
Can’t wait to meet your little girl and see the house!
Oh, I’m so pumped to see this one. I know it will be fabulous. And I love your little helper. What a sweetheart.
I want to see the house in person please! And your little helper – I want to see her too :)
Yep, more pics please!!
Yay!!!! She is SO stinking cute! And I can’t wait for more before and after pictures. Also – I think it’s commendable that you only broke down once! :)
The house looks incredible, please show us some of these flip pics soon. Can’t wait to gain a true perspective of the transformation.
Yay! Can’t wait to see more pictures!
Your Peanut is adorable!
That first photo is such a tease! I can’t wait to see the big reveal. I’m really loving this flip.
Little girl is adorable, I could nibble her all day long :) And you look amazing. Seriously, I speak for all the new moms when I say that!
Dooohh! What a cutie pie! The chub is too much. Yours is the best flipping blog I’ve ever seen, btw. Can’t wait for the pictures.
I hear ya on the ‘handclaw!’ Oh, and the baby is precious – I hear I should enjoy this time when they are still ‘totable’…ha
Amazing! Love your blog, new follower. Hope you’ll stop by my way! :)
Aww, she’s such a cutie. Great work on the house – it looks brilliant : )
