The other day Luke started tearing out the flooring in the kitchen. And by tearing, I mean that literally. Kaden LOVED it. Isn't that a little boys dream? To destroy. And to be helped in destroying by none other than Daddy.
So far "we" (that's a he-we, big time) have one layer of linolium off, 1 layer of plywood off, and 2 layers of linolium to go. Possibly another layer of plywood depending on what we find. I am feeling bad for Luke and will be buying him a BIG SCREEN TV as a thank you with my Pampered Chef money. I know he could have lived with the flooring that was in for years and years, so he's doing this project just for me.
ANYWAY, so the morning after the first layer got torn off Kaden was walking into the kitchen. Right as he was about to step in he stopped-one foot in the air-and exclaimed "OH NO!! Floor BROKEN!"
For how good of a memory he normally has, I was surprised he didn't remember. It was adorable though.
Once again, the floor has turned into more work than we hoped. Yet, again, not more than we probably expected. We've learned that, at least in this house, probably nothing was done to our standards and will be a pain to redo! It's going to get harder and harder to convince Luke to do projects! THAT, or the thank you's will have to get better and better...maybe i shouldn't be starting out with a TV! I'll be posting many before-during-and after pictures as this project progresses. Stay tuned!
