In preparation for Family 3.0, we decided it was time for a major upgrade to Griffin’s loft. Loft 2.0 is bigger, and is now a shared loft for both Maggie and Griffin — we always knew that Maggie deserved a special loft space too. Beneath the deck is an area for reading and building forts, with room, eventually, for a crib. We couldn’t have done it without expert assistance from Sarah’s parents.

Getting started. (This is what Loft 1.0 looked like.)

Griffin learned to use some new tools.

The sander was loud!

The whole family was involved.

It’s strong enough for bouncing!
