I would like this wall replaced with a banister (next 3 pictures). It would open up the space a lot even though it really doesn't create more space: [also by he who knocked holes in it, thank you - by the way, I was pretty proud of myself for repairing these holes.]
I would like the flooring replaced (as no one finds it important to follow shoe and food rules, and the kitchen needs to be swept more regularly to keep mess from spreading I suppose): [This time I am the one who set a hot pan on the floor (1st picture) - to help a child with something? I can't remember for sure. Sorry.]
I would like this following wall fixed and painted (much less to do if the upper half of wall is removed as stated previously). And yes, these holes are largely my fault for throwing toys down the stairs - I no longer do this, and hopefully won't pick up the habit again once the children are moved downstairs:
Also this red wall, from children wear and tear:
And some nice stretch to fit type covers for my couches (which will be replaced someday):
There are more, but that is a good start. The other things must wait (definitely) until we have basement bedrooms ready for kids. And you all know about the basement in progress...

Yay for new blogs!
Impressive that you fixed those holes yourself!
I fixed the hole that is in my wall once, and then broke a new hole. heh. You'll have to give me some pointers.
Well, my layman's trick on these was to trace the shape of the whole on a paper then use that to cut the sheetrock to fit (I have to admit Stephen had put a board behind each of the holes to start them off, though).
hole. ahem.
