No way on the suburbs. We have a 2 year old and I LOVE walking everywhere with her, all the fun options for activities etc. She's been on the CTA (Chicago public trains) a bunch and loves it. I'm with whoever said that even a farm is better than suburbs. Can't stand them. (and yes, I grew up in them) Will Gen Y Ever Move to the Suburbs? The Wall Street Journal |

If budget allows, I'd definitely combine the smaller bedroom and the kitchen to make two new sized bedrooms and then move the kitchen to the living room. That would allow for a window in the bedroom, leave the balcony alone, and actually create a nice open layout for the living room. Suggestions for Location of Third Bedroom in Small Apartment?

I have this one and love it - Jahgoo Baby Bath ($25 on amazon). It's not too big and the baby seems to really like it. Tubby Time! Baby Bathtubs for 6+ Months |

We had those types of blinds in our rental too but I had the landlord take them out and I put up curtains. We can't re-use all the curtains or rods now that we're going to move, but it was completely worth it. Using $4.99 ikea rods really helps keep the price manageble. Dusting the Blinds: An "Oh, Duh!"

Ecover, Bright Green, and 7th Gen are ones I've tried that were good. I hate the smell of regular cleaning products and those three are just as effective. Which is the Best Green Cleaner? Reader Survey | Apartment Therapy Chicago |

I got a desk from them at last year's floor model sale. $550 instead of $900 I think. Shhhh! A Small (Not So) Secret Super Sale | Apartment Therapy Chicago |

My parents got me one of the oldschool aluminum with changing lights trees and I LOVE it. A lot of people make fun of it but I think it's awesome. Christmas Trees of Color | Apartment Therapy DC |

I have very deep window sills,around 8 inches probably. The living room ones have picture frames and vases on them, an the one near the kitchen has mostly cook books. Apartment Therapy Chicago | What's in Your Window Sill? |

I have someone come in for around three hours about 2 times a month. She does the jobs I hate doing (washing bathrooms, kitchen, etc). Apartment Therapy Chicago | Do You Hire a Service to Help with Spring Cleaning? |

I've had a leather L-shaped couch from Dania for almost four years now and it has held up great. Definitely recommended. Good Questions: Dania Feedback? |
