Looks familiar!
Two words of advice:
Fire a LOT of tapcons into those bottom plates. All over the place. Put a couple hundred or so in. Or use a powder nailer. Usually people put the bottom plates on the slab and run the foam up to it. I didn't do this and it was the biggest mistake I made. I lost most of the remainder of my hair trying to figure out how to keep the damn floor from buckling. I ended up having to cut some breather room in the subfloor so it could move.
It's really great you're going through with this. You will be revolutionizing your house. It'll need less heat and have more living space. Looks like you're doing a nice job,.
