French Doors

nMatthew and I have talked for a long time about replacing our sliding doors with French doors.  We finally made it happen yesterday.  Ok, the guys from Lowes finally made it happen.  I had my first Mom to Mom meeting yesterday, so Matthew worked from home.  The boys were with me, too.  The contractors came around 10:15 and were done probably by 12:30.  They were just putting on the finishing touches when we got home.  Robbie loves his new doors and spent most of yesterday just opening and closing them.  He's great about watching out for Alex and not closing him or his fingers in the door, but he's not great about closing the doors gently, so "don't slam the door!" was heard a lot here yesterday!  The doors have blinds between the glass, which is really nice.  We are very happy with the final product.  Matthew needs to paint the doors and the new trim, but that will happen soon.
