The carpet was installed today and finished by 1pm. It is so wonderfully soft and cushy. And the sofa-sleeper arrived at 3pm. Whew! I'm glad we didn't need to deal with getting that beast of a couch downstairs. Its a really nice couch with a queen-sized mattress. So we can have guests stay overnight now. :) I can't believe how much I got done after the carpet was finished. I put Nicholas and Celia down for nap and luckily Aaron napped shortly afterwards. I was able to bring almost everything downstairs from the playroom and organize. I also brought down our old TV (used my muscles there) and set up some older baby toys (like excersaucer) for Aaron. Then the couch was delivered at 3pm. N&C woke up and somehow during the afternoon I was able to steam clean all 3 bedrooms, make dinner by 6pm, and have all kids asleep by 7:45pm. It's an understatement to say I need a shower.
Nicholas and Celia's bedroom furniture comes tomorrow morning bright and early at about 7am. Yikes. I'm usually just rolling out of bed at that time. Their room is clean, empty and has all the paint touched up. We're ready! Hopefully they do well in their beds. I'm 1/2 excited and 1/2 worried.
Here are the pictures! The pictures are a little dark.

this alcove of 3 doors shows the right being the playroom, straight-ahead door is the bathroom (someday) and the door to the left that you can't quite see is the furnace room
