Terrible spaces energetically! A giant mirror, next to a bed, under a slanted ceiling is almost as bad as a drafty window above a babies' crib. I'd be surprised if those babies slept well.

ceiling beams are not very "zen"...they disturb the flow of chi.

It's not a good idea to place the crib under the window. It subconsciously makes the baby feel vulnerable and could cause bad dreams.

rather than buying a new item and just sweeping the dust around, why not use the brush attachment on the canister vacuum?

Most mattresses (including the ones manufactured by the companies that start with an S) are absolute garbage and a new one will not even hold up for 15 years! Be on the lookout Katy, now-a-days most have a layer of "memory foam" sandwiched in the top layers. I bought into the memory foam idea with a Tempurpedic ($$$!) and it lost it's "memory" after a year and a half. Terrible waste of money b/c I got the REALLY high-end one. Memory foam is not a good choice for longevity.

If I could have just one do-over I would get a 100% cotton mattress from The Ritz. The same comfy ones they have in their hotel rooms. In addition to really hating all mattresses for comfort reasons, I also believe most synthetic ones off-gas and cause lots of health issues. 100% Cotton or even organic cotton ($$$!) would be best, unless you enjoy headaches. ;)

If you have to go the mainstream mattress route buy a non-pillow top and just add your own topper. That way you don't have to throw the baby out with the bath water when the top sags.

If you go into a chain to buy a mattress OFFER them HALF of what they are asking. There is a huge profit margin on these piece of junk landfillers!

Thanks for letting me vent AT!

This looks like a house that Willy Wonka would enjoy. I like the super-faux wood floors, but not a lot else.
