Home Improvements or Nesting ???

I have to laugh because everytime we start a new adoption and finish up the paperwork or come close to it we also begin furiously updating our home. With Rachel we ended up putting down hard wood floors in our entire upstairs and making our loft into a 4th bedroom. With Lei we are now adding a floor to ceiling bookshelf in our formal living room, Adding crown molding to 2 upstairs bedrooms and our upstairs bathroom, then the biggie is we are remodeling our Kitchen. We are replacing the tile, updating the hardware on the cabinets, replacing the countertops and replacing the appliances with stainless. We are also adding ceiling fans and some new lighting as well as updating some trim work downstairs. Ok, I'm now dizzy just thinking about all of it lol. When it is all said and done, we will then immediately proceed to the poorhouse ;-) The book shelf is almost done so once it is finished I will post a pic. It is awesome and I'm so glad we had it built. I know it will be a nice selling point one day when we sell. I definitely think there is a connection between our preadoption home improvements and Nesting .....
