The builder didn't believe my husband when he told him that I would find them.

Open plan is over rated with lots of kids. More doors the merrier the mum in this ol' barn. We don't do the air con thing either, ol' hippies that we are.

A new old set of french doors will be going between the kitchen and tv/family room so I can shut the kids in there with abc kids and not have to hear any more of that Jimmy Giggle. But we had to go with clear glass as my two need to be watched at all times. It is definitely the way to go for both heating/cooling and noise containment. mel xBungalowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03591099131301027446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390135910400025884.post-48478207606290119872012-12-03T16:06:08.495+10:002012-12-03T16:06:08.495+10:00Is it mean to smile at the fact that others have D...Is it mean to smile at the fact that others have DIY tantrums and throw their toys out of the pram too?

After living in several homes with an open plan layout, I have discovered that it's definitely not the ideal arrangement when you have a houseful of children.
