Preparing

Our bathroom renovation is complete and we are getting ready to replace our old carpet with new wood laminate floors.  We had to move everything out and the kids loved running around the empty house.  Ellie wanted to help take up the carpet, so during Cooper’s nap we let here help.  She made funny shapes as the underlay was pulled up.  She then named a few of them before scraping them up.  She also pointed out all the staples I missed.  Once Cooper was up, Ellie had Cooper throwing out all the little scraps she scraped up.  Once they finished their part they both took my phone and sat in their new fort outside!  Ellie was excited for this one time only to write on her floor and leave a message for some future person.
