Sustainable buildings: passivhaus, low carbon design and NABERS | Pablo Gugel, Director of Sustainability

I need to be able to enjoy this room even while I’m waiting for all of my renovation dreams to come true.

So there you go!A few new things you can do with that basic old bottle of baby powder that you have in the back of the cupboard.First of all, before we get back into any of this DIY stuff, thank you so much for all the well wishes and lovely comments on my last post about our new baby Jack.

He’s doing great, very strong and healthy, although he’s keeping me up all night every night feeding.I don’t think I’ve slept more than 2 hours for the last five nights!It’s all worth it though to have a healthy, thriving baby.

In fact, just yesterday we went to see the doctor and he’s already gained 2 oz over his birth weight!Babies lose weight after birth and you usually want them back up to birth weight by 2 weeks old, so his weight gain is a big deal!.

OK, enough baby talk for today.

🙂 Onto the DIY of the day.Let them apply a coat of drywall mud if they’re up for the challenge.. 7..

Create, plan, shop and tool up.– on the right projects you can find it fun to include you child in the preparation.

Begin with the creativity as together you brainstorm ideas and feasibility.Once a design is decided upon, move along with the planning process, do the math, build a materials list and go shopping.
