Our Apartment

Per special request, here are some pictures of our apartment. We will only be here for a few months, as I am moving in with my parents (seriously) when Chris deploys.

This is our living room. Instead of investing/moving our furniture, we decided to buy bean bags when we got here. Then we found out that bean bags are expensive, so we thought about a futon. Then we found out futons were expensive, so we went back to bean bags and got some nice ones at Wal-Mart. These two were the only ones left, which is why we look like Steelers fans. Also, there is a dog bed to the right, and Eden is laying on the other one. Next to the dog bed is a door out to our small patio. Our windows look out over a grassy area that the deer and pooping dogs are fond of. And at night, we can see the city lights, which is pretty. This picture was taken from in front of the kitchen area.



Here is our kitchen area, and the dog area. The dog area is actually the dining area, but we don't have a table or anything, so the dogs got it. To the right is our front door. To the left, you can see an open space, which is the beginning of the hallway to Izzy's room. Immediately to the left, you can see half a door, which is the water heater/closet door. Perpendicular to that door is the door to our bedroom, which you'll see in a minute. This picture was taken from the living room.


This is a picture of our bedroom, which also serves as a "changing Izzy" room, and a general "stick your mess in a corner" room. That's our old queen bed, not the tempurpedic, which is a bear to move. Our night stands are our tubs that we used to move. To the right is our bathroom/closet area. To the left are windows and a door that lead onto that small patio area. The blinds to our room are often up, because Izzy loves to play with them. This picture was taken from the door to our bedroom.



This is the hallway to Izzy's room. On the left are the laundry area and the guest bath. This picture was taken from the beginning of the hallway, which is in the dining/dog/kitchen area.



This is Izzy's room. Her crib is canted, because we have to protect the nightlight, of which she has learned to remove the light cover. To the right is her closet, where she throws her clothes all over. The TV box holds her fan and humidifier when she is awake, because she knows how to turn on and unplug, and tries to plug back in.


And that's our apartment in 5 pictures. Not that big. Not too bad. It'll do for a few months.
