Is your home ready for baby? by simonshingleton

I am so proud to welcome the newest member to my family, my neice, Piper Brynn Goldman.  She was a little slow to make her appearance but we are all so thankful she made it here smoothly and safely. Her mom and dad did great and couldn’t be more proud!

A visit to the hospital and some reminiscing got me thinking about when our son Jude was born.  It was such a whirlwind experience and we were a little bit less than prepared around the house.  My wife and I tend to be deadline driven people and work well under a little bit of pressure (aka, procrastinators).  When we went to check in with the doctor because Rachel hadn’t been feeling so hot, seven (7) weeks before our delivery date, we never expected to be told we were going to have our baby that day!  Not only did we not have any of our furniture yet, we hadn’t even started to baby-proof the house.  I think I might have had an expressions similar to this one when I started thinking about all the things that needed to be done:

Thank goodness for family and friends, who stepped up to the plate and made things happen while we were stuck in the hospital and numb from the craziness we had just been through.

When it comes time to bring baby home, don’t worry!  They aren’t mobile from day one.  You can work on putting things away and securing doors and cabinets before they start crawling.

Now lets rewind back to when we started our home search, I wasn’t married yet and although marriage was in the near future, having a baby was far from my mind.  Our house was modest, but at only two bedrooms and a work from home office, we were going to be a little cramped when our first came along and for sure could not handle having a second child there.

As you start your home search here are few things to think about if you plan on starting a family any time soon:

  • Space to easily convert to a nursery for the baby
  • School District
  • How busy is the traffic on the street
  • Is the yard enclosed to the kids can run free without getting out
  • Do you see other kids playing in the neighborhood
  • Walking distance to the nearest park or activity center

When we bought our current house, these were a few of the items that were put on the list as we tried to decide if we were making the right move.  We feel like the house we are in now will accommodate our family as long as we want to live there.

How about you, what other things are you looking for in a family home?  Is it time for you to think about moving up or getting into a better school district?  Let me help by guiding you through the steps to get in the perfect home for you and you family.
