We just re-did our bedroom in plywood flooring and it looks amazing. It was specially sealed so the floors simply *shine*. And priced at $1200 for labor and materials versus $3200 for wood, engineered wood and laminate, it was a no-brainer for us. We love it. In the Raw: The Strange Beauty of Plywood |

Totally agree. I've made my bed since high school - and was the only one in my family to do so. A while ago I slipped up and stopped doing it, and noticed I was grumpy when I finally went to bed and would toss my clothes on the floor. A few months ago I was back to the habit and what a difference! A refreshing haven at the end of the day and I don't throw my clothes on the floor anymore. Make Your Bed!

I'm lucky to live in a town where there are at least five in my neighborhood and three near my kid's school! People LOVE them! Book Sharing: Little Free Library |

Any chance I can find out what brand/type their toilet is? I love the style - so minimal, without being too "modern." David and John's Return Engagement House Tour |

Use this chance to ask for what you'd really love, but only what you'll use. I agree on a good knife set, quality cutting boards and durable pots and pans and linens. Wedding Wish List: What's Your Best Registry Advice? |

We eat dinner together most nights. I do my best to get home before my husband and daughter (3 y/o) to get started on dinner. If the weather is OK, they head to the playground for a bit until it's done. It's her job to set the table, we eat together, and then move on to other activities - swimming lessons, exercising, etc. 3 Tips for Still Having Family Dinner When Your Kid Eats at 5:00 |

We have a sofa that folds down to be a bed that's in between a twin and a double bed. We got it on sale from Room and Board, and honestly, it wasn't worth it. It's so uncomfortable to sit on as a couch that we don't even bother anymore. As a bed, we usually put a wool blanket down before the sheet to add more padding. People say it's fine, but I would invest in a day bed with a real mattress if you'll have that many guests staying with you. Low Cost Guest Room Daybed or Futon? Good Questions |

I agree that I like this trend. I watch most of my "TV" on my laptop, and we have our TV on a dresser, which serves as storage. Living in a small space, we don't want to commit to a large piece of furniture. Hooray for downsizing! The Fall of the Full Wall Entertainment Center |

I've had the same question. Once painted, do you notice any peeling or chipping? Are you able to still wipe down the cabinets with a rag? Can I Paint Over Laminate Cabinetry? Good Questions |

Bottle warmer, wipes warmer, changing table. Fortunately we held off on these items, because I never missed them at all. My daughter still likes to be rocked at nearly 3, but I have a friend who got rid of her rocker as soon as her baby didn't like it anymore.

I'm not going to add anything new here... I think all babies should we welcomed and honored. For our friends having their 2nd or 3rd, we generally put on there, "bring a little gift for mom and baby," and people bring all kinds of things - thrifted clothing, soaps, IOUs for errands, etc. And also, if you don't want to go, don't go.
