I know it's never going to look like a palace - but we are pleased with how it is coming along.
We still need to paint the shelves the same yellow that is in the kitchen - there is plenty in the paint can.
Joel and Kendra have their growth charts moved to the hallway. We finally found Vannan's, but have yet to get it put up. I think we will get a better idea of their heights now, since the floor at the bathroom door is mostly gone - you walk on the beams to go to the bathroom. At least the carpet keeps it from being obvious. Plus the crawl space below is stuffed full of boards - you wouldn't go very far if the carpet tore... but I degress ... we were discussing the hallway - right?
The chalkboard has become a HIGH use item. You can see the chalk baskets up at the top right corner - working nicely, but a bit of a reach.
The girls love doing math and English on the board.
The plan is to make "brag strips" for each of the kids - not much room each, but at least it is something.
Of course, if I don't miscarry - I'll have to make the strips even narrower next year.
Yep - we're expecting again ... but with 5 miscarriages....
I was pretty shocked when I realized it was a possiblitiy - and even more shocked to be positive.
Talk about putting a kink in project "Rearrange the house so it works".
