Could this be the last sanding job before we can finally move in? Oliver was a champ this week sanding our floors and they are ready to stain.
Hoping to move in beginning of November, do you think we will?
Lots of love, Laura x

Hats off to Ollie for all that sanding, not an easy job. Glad you are getting all the messy toxic stuff out of the way before the baby arrives. Don't feel guilty for not helping out, your health and babies health has to be a priority.
yeah sanding sucks.. i just did my bedroom after it had carpet for 50 years... snaps for your husband+
You are such an amazing couple! You work so well together which is a testament to the strength of your relationship. Thank you for sharing your renovation and all your hard work. It's so nice to see your family grow, with Otto and now baby. I'm glad you are going to stay at your parents for this phase. Looking forward to next week's video!!
Lovely cabinet in the dining room! Don’t get rid of the nutribullet cause when the baby’s old enough for trying to eat you can make your own baby food in it. I puréed peas carrots sweet potatoes etc!! Just added water or milk to thin as needed 🙂
The floors are looking beautiful, a great collaboration. I really think people underestimate the effect of supporting your partner during these times, in whatever capacity you can. And being ‘spoiled’ is a good motivator 😂 having lived through 6 renovations I understand the excitement of getting areas organised and comfortable. My husband and I used to walk around the neighbourhoods looking in people’s windows during our renovations, dreaming about the time we would be able to enjoy our home. We were eventually able to be mortgage free so it was all worth it.
Oh I really felt for Ollie, earlier this year I sanded my kitchen( 32x15 foot). It was unbelievably physical, those sanders have to be held back and are not designed for a small women! I cried so many times, I wanted to quit, I had two dust bag explosions 😂 I couldn't lift my arms for about two weeks and vibrated for days. It looks stunning but I worked out why it's so expensive to get it done professionally. Hats off to you Ollie.
It was months before I could really enjoy the floor, as I was sort of traumatised by the process, I could see that on Ollie face when Laura was giddy. Good time to be pregnant lady 😁
Great job Ollie! Your floors are so beautiful! Otto is such a good pup, so calm, and so cute!
13:44 In case you didn’t know, historical corsets (and stays, the predecessor to corsets) were used like back braces for working women. They keep your back straight and help balance weight across your torso.
Well done to Ollie doing all the floors on his own! X
Nothing quite like a baby due to cause the house work to move along quicker than you ever realised was possible! How lovely that you have found new ways to help out but appropriately due to pregnancy. We found out we were having our baby 28th September 22 and completed on our house on 10th October 22! So we has so much work to get done and it was so worth it as we can barely get a door painted with a 4 month old baby now! Such fun and you are going to be such wonderful parents 💙 boys are the best also!xxx
The floors are looking fantastic! Ollie is doing a great job and your being a supportive wifey keeping the food and snacks coming. Team work is dream work :)
One idea for all that new extra space in the kitchen: stock up now on non-perishable items, before the baby comes. It will lessen your grocery shopping duties later!
Not an easy job, well done Ollie. 👏 and to Laura for being busy in the background. Great team ❤❤
Yeah!! I’m first for a change!!!! We have just sold our house on 4th oct and it’s nearly identical to yours but only two floors. We spent four years renovating, seven years enjoying and now it’s time for a change. Love your channel so much!!! The house looks amazing ( my style too) and your bump is looking so cute. Congrats on everything. Xx
1st of all, prep work is very important so give yoursel a pat on the back. I love that Ikea piece. Have wanted the bottom in green forever. Looks perfect in your room. Mixed videos are very welcomed. We don't want to miss out on baby news or renos. Floors already look amazing, Ollie, & will be worth ALL your hard work.
I think everything will be ready for baby boy. Lots of hard work by Ollie. Just take good care of yourself and the baby. ❤
It is so worth all the hard work. Well done Ollie and you too Laura. 💝🙏💖
Can’t wait to see all these rooms done x
Hi guys! What an amazing journey this renovation is- you and Ollie have worked so very hard on this project. I honestly don’t think you’ll believe it when you finally complete your rooms. I guess then, it will be work on the extension after precious baby’s arrival! You will not have just a house after but a beautiful home for him to grow up in. Otto is as adorable as ever and it’s so heartwarming to see what an important member of your family he is. Have a great week.🧡💚💛
I’m impressed you’ve sanded all that floor and others yourselves. My partner and I hired the exact same sanders as you and after 2 days we’d lost the will to live and ended up getting a pro in to finish it. The black stuff just ate the sand paper up in seconds as it melted on to it so it was impossible without a really good sander!! I’ll never attempt it again 😂
Bravo Ollie! You did a great job. Your home is going to be even more beautiful in the end; I am happy for you both. Can’t wait to see the next installment of the works.😊
We want ALL the pregnancy/baby content Laura!! No doubt your nursery choices will be beautiful and we need your inspo! ❤
Congratulations on the announcement of your newest family member! And, the floors are looking beautiful...good job.
Laura you have the most beautiful complection!!!
Loving our clean shaven Ollie…..such a handsome face ☺Laura you young lady are glowing…🤱🤱🤰
Olie deserves a medal. Full time working, and renovation plus dog and baby before renovations are done. For a man who are hard wired on providing roof and financial security to take all that on is tough. I hope his job and income are firmly secured and he does not fall ill. Defo you two do not do things by halves, but by tripples!
Ollie - the best!! working so hard:)) and Laura taking care of everything else;))) the best couple indeed;))) floors look awesome guys:))) really love to see all the progress:) Much love
Ollie is a star well done and Laura u are looking amazing sending love to u 3 💞

Hello Laura

Love to all
Andrew 💜💐xx
Looks great Good “mammoth “ job Ollie
Amazing
I'm the same trying to clean up the garden, cut things back so i can mulch for winter and take all the garden decor in and put away. I'm going around on one crutche after a hip replacement 3 weeks ago so going to have to get young adult kids who hate any type of gardening to help me and off course my husband 😅. It really looks great.
Well done guy’s as always 🙌🙌🙌
I have the same white drawers - Koppang. I found some lovely gold and pearl knobs for them from Amazon and have transformed them 😉
Well done Ollie 👏🏻👏🏻
Well done on the floors. 😊 they are looking so good. Will you move your other bed down?
Where did you get that bigger cabinet ? The one for your dinning room, it’s gorg and I need it
edit to say, she did say it was from ikea, I couldn't find it at first but it's the LOMMARP cabinet
All our gardens are looking unwell after months of rain....what can you do? Ollie's done a fantastic job sanding the floors ...🥰🥀🥀🥀🌧️
Awesome. What. Team....and I suppose even though you might feel guilty....of not being there to help Ollie...you have achieved just as much as keeping your baby and yourself safe from the environment....and Ollie has definitely been well looked after...he knows how much he is appreciated..x oh and some help from Otto xx. It will all be worth the hard work..x take care and see you next week...😊
It’s looking so good , loved that striped dress on you, pregnancy really suits you , you look radiant 💐
Your floors would look great natural.
Does the floor not need slight gaps for expansion? I love the idea of no gaps because hate the dirt that just collects there but always thought they were necessary even in hardwood flooring 🤔
What is the name of Ollie back support? My husband could use one.
🥰🇨🇦
Is the audio weird for the first 15 minutes of the video for anyone else? It seems to be only playing out of my left earphone.
Unfortunately that happens sometimes with the way it was recorded - you just have to remember to disconnect your earphones. It was perfectly fine when you don’t use any AirPods or earphones with wires. Cheers! 😊
Does your dog shed a lot?
Just feed him.
Wow you think 29 is hot Australia cities and surrounding areas reaches mid 30s and high 30s that is unbearable give me 29 any day❤
This blue room looked good before now you are cluttering it.
Floor sanding is the WORST!
