After getting Caroline's allergy testing done, we found out that really all she is allergic to is cat and dog...and we have (had in the case of the cat) an indoor cat and dog! SO...we decided to rip out all of the carpet in our house and put in laminate floors so there is no where for animal hair to be trapped.
And as usual...I guess because we don't value any free time...we decided to do ALL of the work ourselves (with some generous help from my parents!!).
And what else would we find but about 6 different layers and types of flooring underneath the carpet...this is becoming a trend in our house!
The finished product turned out quite nicely! My dad had to build some custom door thresholds becuase of the difference in height from the bathroom (where we removed four layers of subfloor when we redid that room) and the hallway! They turned out AWESOME!!

Dale and my dad also built custom baseboards...and again they turned out AWESOME and saved tons of money by building them ourselves! There is still some caulking, painting, etc. to be done...but at least the floor is down!
