          • Chic Mommy's kitchen!, I'm in need of some feedback as to go with best optional design for our kitchen reno...which won't happen for couple of years, so gathering ideas now. 

Kitchen itself is a good size room with 19'5" by 11'4". My problem is the narrowness of the kitchen as you can see from the pictures. i have few ideas of how to max the useage of the dimensions, another problematic area is no deck door/french doors from kitchen to our deck. We've to go out there by way through our sliding door in the den room. I have this idea of expanding the kitchen into the den, making it one big open space but the powder room sits between kitchen/den wall space. 

Hence the idea of moving the powder room to where the laundry room is, which is behind the stovetop wall and converting the office into a big laundry/mud room as the office is within the two car garage. Previous owners had the option of having 3 car garage or 2 car garage with third "space" as a legit room. So, we used that room as the office but could alternatively be used as a 5th bedroom since it has windows and closet space. 

That would entail massive overhaul but it helps us to redesign our space without bumping out the entire kitchen space into our exisiting deck/backyard. Ideas???? desperate mommy is in need of serious organization. It worked fine when it was just two of us, but with a growing baby into a toddler, another on the way and 2 dogs....just not working for us anymore. 

so....feedback is appreciated based on your ability to read my pictures! Thanks
