With all the in-wall work pretty much complete, the house has been taken over by the insulation people as they pack the walls with UltraTouch natural fiber insulation.
We picked this over standard fiberglass insulation because of it's green properties. It's made out of 85% post-industrial cotton fiber (i.e. denim scraps from manufacturers) and is 100% recyclable. Even better for me is that it's VOC-free and formaldehyde-free, which should help the indoor air quality. As a side benefit, they should also work pretty well as a sound barrier.
With all the walls filled in, the rooms are really starting to take shape as you can no longer see from one end of the house to the other. The drywalls go up next and will probably take a couple weeks to complete.
