Day 234 - Big Changes

Today I took 62 photo's, thats a little excessive I think, but then it was a big day with the dining room window being replaced with a set of merbau doors while we were out at Science Time. This photo is going to be awesome to refer back to as we change the house. The Sun rising in the reflection totally proves that I was up way too early today though. I guess it was the excitement of knowing our house was going to be changing in a huge way today.



By the time Maddie and I left for Science Time at the Botanical Gardens we were leaving the house with a massive hole in the wall, while any blue sky that was out this morning disappeared under a mass of clouds. By the time we reached parliament house it was raining and I was super nervous about us being left with a hole in the wall for a couple of days. Thankfully the rain was short lived and by the time we had reached Science Time it had stopped.

The topic for todays class was reptiles and frogs and Maddie loved being able to pat a Shingleback and do her paper plate craft, but I think her favourite thing was looking at x-rays of a frog and snake. We went for a walk through the kids garden and the rainforest before heading home just as the rain started again. The tall tree's make Maddie look so little on the rainforest walkway.


We got home just in time to help hang the doors, before realising that because we reversed the frames, we were going to have to turn  the doors upside down and alter them a little as well. eventually, after a lot of altering I helped Rob put them back on so he could install the locks and call it a day. I will have to remember to take a shot from outside but this shot from the kitchen shows just how different the dining room is looking. It is so much more open and bright, although I hate that at the moment everyone can see in and see all the clutter and dust everywhere if they wanted to. We will have to work out screens and curtains soon, especially something for tonight so I can work without everyone passing being able to see in.
