It Has Begun - Day 1

Wow! Coming home yesterday was pretty shocking. The girls clung close to me mostly freaked out by the plastic that was hung to keep the dust relatively separated from the rest of the house. Olivia began informing me after much discussion that "the workers were taking our kitchen away" and that "we were buying a new one." Today more demolition will continue as more plaster needs to come down so the electrician can do his thing.

This picture is taken from the closet which they opened up from the guest room into the kitchen yesterday. This closet will become our desk area...

This is the future desk area I was talking about...This is probably the messiest part of everything right now, but I imagine thing will be crazier when I get home today as they'll be cutting the hole into the dining room.

Breakfast this morning went as well as it could once Liv got over the fact that we'd be eating at the dining room table in the middle of the living room and that Daddy was making toast on the floor! Wish us luck! The plan is that "re-construction" will begin Friday and flooring the middle of next week.
