Bathroom remodeling begins!

We finally found a contractor that could commit to our deadline! The work began yesterday and I think some really good progress has already been made!
The plumber came by first thing in the morning and changed out the valve. And the drywall was taken out in the shower as well:Mommy finished pulling up the laminate floor (Graham helped, of course):
The contractor showed up and pulled the toilet off its base and we found more wallpaper when he pulled off the cultured marble by the tub:
Here's what it looked like at the end of Day 1:
The shower base is to be installed today and hopefully tiling will begin soon after! And somehow, Graham is sleeping through all the noise (thankfully!) :-)
