Day 4! We need a roof Pepere!

The build continues!
I think Pepere is starting to ache a bit.  He may have built decks years ago, but I think those knees and back and hands are starting to let him know this is a pretty big project he has taken on.  Pat and I try to help as much as we can.
But it's a good thing we have Jocelyn around to help with the hammering!...
When she's not making loops in and out of the framed walls that is!  (She may be disappointed that they are going to be closed in soon...)
I have tried to take pictures of her with her complete construction outfit on, but I'm not having much success getting her to stand still for very long.  She is totally hyped about this playhouse!!   We've had lots of rain lately, but that's not stopping her from running around and getting really muddy!
Today's progress included adding on the front wall frame, putting the flooring onto the front deck, making doors for the two sides of the building (don't forget there is a shed side to all this!), and shortening the sheets of wood that will become the walls.  Dad has been calling  these sheets of wood, "T one eleven" and confusing me for days.  You can see them all cut and standing in waiting, in today's picture.
Of course I just have to add a picture of my hunky, handsome, hubby lugging the wood!
Tomorrow I think some of the walls will be going up.  I'm amazed at the progress, but it's still not going fast enough for Jocelyn.  Today she told Pepere "You need a roof Pepere!"
No pressure....

  1. Woohoo! What a hunky, handsome hubby! :-)

    The shed/playhouse is coming along so fast - it's great to see the daily progress. Jocelyn is going to love playing in it.
