House renovations

Ok so we are having a third child and we have a smallish three bedroom house.  Why can't the kids share?  That is what I thought.  I was happy to have two of them share a room.  We have a boy and a girl so the baby is going to be the same sex as one of them.  But my husband was pretty adamant that he wanted the kids to each have their own room.  And the more I thought I about it the more I agree.  We are not rich by any means but we do have the means to provide our kids with a bed room each.  Ok it is taking a loan from the bank to do it but what does that matter.  What is more important than our kids.  We have a double garage that we haven't been able to get a car into in some time.  It is too full of junk, including all our baby stuff that we hadn't gotten around to selling or giving away, thank goodness.  So we are going to convert it into a bedroom, a study/craft room and a play/rumpus room.  It will be wonderful to have a bit more space.  Our daughter will probably move into the new bedroom and she will be able to pick out the colours etc.  I can already see what she will pick now, Pink Pink and more pink.  She is very much a girly girl :-)  The baby can have her old room, which has always been the nursery and is the closest to our room.  The study/craft room is the one I am most excited about I have to admit.  I do have a dedicated craft space but it is basically a little cubby hole in our bedroom.  So I have to be quiet and any mess has to be stepped over etc on a daily basis.  Having a room with the computer and all my craft stuff in it will be heaven.  I have already started planning out how I am going to organise it.  I know we are having a new baby and I am more excited about getting a craft room.  What can I say?  I will be excited about the baby when it arrives don't worry. 

So we had a meeting with a building designer yesterday and he told us that what we want is doable and will should (very big provisos on this word) get past planning regulations.  It is also doable with our budget.  That was the disappointing part, I was really hoping that he would tell us that we had heaps so we could get some new furniture and the soft furnishings but I guess we are just going to have to save every cent we can so we can get those things.  All in all I am pretty happy about our plans.  :-)
