Brodi, David and Levi have been at the house, this week. There is flooring in the laundry and pantry, which is very exciting. The en-suite also has flooring. The shower flooring is down and the cavities for the sliding doors are done.
There are a few other things, but we are getting closer to 'lock-up', and we are going to keep some things as a surprise.
Thanks, guys!
Once we hit 'lock-up', Lenice, Andrew, their parents and anyone not associated with the day's supporting businesses, will be kept out of the house.
We will start to only show sneaky photos.... We will not actually show complete rooms. We want Lenice and Andrew to see the whole house, together, as a family... when it is all done.
We don't want anyone talking to them about what it looks like, or showing them photos or video.
We don't want photos shared on social media, but feel free to text us photos of your work, tradies! We will share all the photos after the Reveal Party.
Melissa and Carol have been arranging the Doing it for Dexter house project since January 2013. We'd hate for the surprise to be ruined in the last moments.
There are exciting times ahead!
Everyone involved in the project is invited to the Reveal Party!

The laundry flooring has covered up the beams and pipes.
It really is starting to look like a real room!
The pantry flooring is also down. This new pantry is going to be massive!

The sliding door cavities are all in, now.
The sliding doors will make access much easier for Dexter.
His cerebral palsy makes it hard for him to hold and turn door knobs.
He now turns off lights! Some days, this is still a bit tricky for him, but most nights... the lights go off at his first attempt.
It will be a while before he masters door knobs!
Dexter will have a door from his bedroom, in to the bathroom.
This will make things much easier for him.

The shower flooring is down. Our plumber, Jason, spent a lot of time under this section of the house. Thank you!
The reinforced shower walls are for further down the track, in case Dexter can use a shower seat.
For now, he will be able to use his shower/toilet seat, which is a little like a wheelchair for the shower.
This will be exciting to use, because it didn't fit in the old bathroom!

Every house needs an en-suite, right?
Thank you!
Thank you!
