Switcharoo

We've been VERY lucky in that since we have been married, we've only had to buy one piece of furniture. And that was just a movie case that was pretty cheap and isn't really necessary to apt living. Everything else has been given to us for free in one way or another. But we finally felt like it was time to move on from our first free couch. This is what the "beauty" looked like:
Although it has been a good couch, especially considering it was free, it hurts my back when I sit on it for a long time. And since I've been spending a lot of time on the couch as I've been sick and I know I will spend a lot of time on it after the baby is born, we decided it was time to make our first real furniture purchase. Can I just say I HATE spending lots of money?! But it was worth it and here is what our new couch looks like. It kind of blends in with our carpet.... but hey- we didn't buy it to match this apt, right? Come visit anytime so you can try it out :)

I love microfiber too, BUT although they say everything comes out, spit-up/throw-up does not come out. Be careful.

Thanks for thinking of me when I am spending a few nights on the couch helping after the baby arrives. I am very excited to try it out:)!!

I look forward to the day that I can justify buying a new couch too. I don't like our free couch. :-)
