Lost a tooth

Madeline literally lost a tooth yesterday. Her story

"I was holding my backpack with my mouth - not the whole backpack just the top - then got to my class and swallowed my spit and it tasted funny and then Mrs. L asked if I had lost a tooth."
Where was this all
"In the carrider entrance before I got to my classroom. It wasn't even loose!"


The tooth fairy was very kind and found the tooth at her school and left her a paper dollar under her pillow.

Budget

By Natalie
Dad was asking about the budget and how we're doing so far. Initially we had a total budget of about $350k for the house. As we negotiated the purchase price up and found more information about what the house needed that budget went to a maximum of about $415k. As of today, we anticipate spending around $400k or ~$111/sqft. As a comparison, Oakwood cost us $90/sqft and we sold for $106/sqft and the new owners are doing all kinds of neat stuff we dreamed about doing. So far we're under budget in a couple of areas, within budget but ahead of schedule in some (which can also be read as over budget...) and just going to be way over in a couple of key areas. Our original plan including making a temporary kitchen that we could live with, but would be massively overhauled within a year or two. Instead we decided to do it right the first time and enjoy it the entire time. To this end, our temp budget for cabs, appliances, and counters, was initally $5,600. However, that's g...

Birthdays

By Natalie
It's pretty funny. Harris doesn't check the blog, so I can write all about what we're up to here and it will still be a surprise! Starting around 6 tonight people are going to start coming by to wish him a happy birthday. We're having pie pushers, BBQ, meat, brownies, beer, and ice cream. Most all of this has been procurred in the past 12 hours. Madeline and I strung lights in the trees before leaving for work this morning and took all of the non-fridgerated stuff on up there too. After work, I swing by the apartment to pick up last things, then go up the street to set everything up. And if you're reading this and want to stop by, come on, there's plenty of food and ice cream :)

reflecting, thinking about what's next

By Natalie
Reading through the blog, mainly to look at the ruin that was our house and the wee little babes that were our babies, now walking, running, yelling girls and found this from January 2016 What's left - the girls bathroom, master suite, sunroom, tile patching in 2 bathrooms, butler pantry. Summer kitchen. Landscaping. We've completed the girls bathroom, butler pantry, and landscaping. The sunroom is ALMOST finished. After living in the house with three girls we've changed plans a little bit for the remaining work. We're opting to turn what would have been mine and Harris's bedroom, closet, and bathroom into a bonus room of sorts. We'll also leave the wall there and add the washer/dryer upstairs and some desk space so the girls have a place to work. We also will build a general storage closet up there so clothing doesnt have to go up and down to the attic each season. We've also decided we need a shower upstairs, so the clawfoot that is in bad shape up...
