It's actually been pretty cool in the mornings and we had a heavy cold rain last night. I think the warm summer is officially finished! But the temperature inside the hosue has definitely gone up!
Got all the insulation today! Blow-in in all the exterior walls, Batts in the lower floor ceiling for the in floor heating, Batts around the bathroom and laundry for soundproofing, and Batts in the existing crawl space. The blow-in performs better than batts on the exterior because it feels voids better around wires, plugs, etc.. It all makes a huge difference already. It's quieter and feels more like rooms. Even with the big openings it is warmer inside already. 
The T&G cedar is going on the outside at the Lower Patio and Upper Deck. We had a slight delay due to some material issues but we are moving ahead now and it just looks beautiful! A little stain and it will just pop. Note that we are not triming out around the doors and windows. The idea is to keep it simple and clean, just carefully cut the T&G and be done. Also note the window at left is the larger window for the second bathroom. Anyone need a 1'-0" x 3'-0" Pella sliding window? Brand New :-)I need to get some pictures of the Mechanical Room. The Boiler and all the rest of the equipment will be in tomorrow and we should have heat by the weekend! PLus Gas and water service shuld be hooked up tomorrow. We are getting ready for sheetrock asap!
