Upstairs Bathroom

Oh, what have we gotten ourselves into? in 2007, we decided to rip out some closets in the upstairs hallway. Then we tore up the floor to the joists, sistered them and put a new subfloor in. Then we demolished all the plaster and lath on 4 walls and the ceiling. Then we framed in a divider wall to separate the bathroom from the hallway, and built a shower enclosure and seat. 3 inch drain to the bathroom is complete. Toilet is in (temporarily). Supply plumbing is run for toilet and shower. Bathroom electrical is finished except for the radiant heat. We have much to do, including some of the plumbing, tiling/flooring, radiant heating, wallboard, shower tiling, fixtures, trim, and about a hundred smaller things I can't (don't want to) think of.
