April Updates

We did it!! We signed the contract for the kitchen remodel this month!! And we picked out our cabinets and cabinet color!! I’m so excited to get this project underway and done before this baby arrives. The new kitchen is going to give our home a different feel, it’s going to open up the family room into the kitchen as we are knocking down the wall between these two rooms. We are adding an island at an angle, and some tall dish cabinets that will allow for enough storing space for dishes, glasses and the such. We’re moving a door in order to accommodate the refrigerator in a different place, as well as our new pantry. Our timeline for completion is about 12 weeks out from the date that we signed the contract. Now granted, it was not until almost the last day of the month that we did this, but nonetheless it is DONE!! The cabinets will take 2 weeks to get the color match completed, then we have to approve and the order finally goes out. Once the order is placed we will have to wait about 6 weeks to get the cabinets in, at which time demolition will begin and our kitchen will be out of commission for the next 6 weeks. We’re making progress!!! We’ve got so many other decisions to make—things we never even thought about like the profile of the cabinet doors, the arch on the cabinet doors, down to the grout color for the tile in the new kitchen. We settled on all the decisions about the cabinets this month, so that’s a plus—the rest of the decisions will come a bit later. So we can take a breather right now. We’ve got another busy month ahead so, more updates later!
