Baby Space Update

Yes, I let him use power tools.

I originally posted THIS LIST on my other blog... it was our to do list for Baby P's room.
Since that was posted about a month and a half ago the list has been expanded considerably to contain more details, but also quite a few things have been crossed off.
So I thought (maybe just for my own encouragement) I would share with you what the list looks like now. Document the progress. Comments in italics.

Baby Space To Do List:
1. Clean out basement to make space for 'guest bedroom' Can I get double points for this since it technically happened twice seeing as how we had to reclean and rearrange everything after we got water in the basement?
