the other thing I would add which you may or may not be able to add is a second room that is either a family room, play room, or formal living room... just something to let the kids have some space away from the adult area that does not have to be kept in a pristine condition all of the time
Thanks! We don't have enough money right now to add a whole new room just for the kids. In some of the designs they added a 'polyvanent space' that could be used as play room at first and as library later.

Congrats!

Cappuccino in my cup. Still not feeling great, but it's the last day of the week. So I can look forward to some much needed sleep!
