On Luke's and my to-do list is to purchase a book shelf (for storing photo albums and displaying picture frames) for our bedroom, along with two matching nightstands. In the distant future, we hope to buy a new mattress and new dressers. Right now, Baby Brother's room has been getting all the love, but someday! Also, I wish we lived near an Ikea. There are no Ikeas in Indiana, and the closest one is in Cincinnati, about 90 miles away. We thought about ordering from their Web site, but their shipping costs are outrageous. Seriously, I went to order a $99 chair, and the cost to ship was almost three hundred dollars. WTF?! Oh, I am jealous!

And yes, there are only two of us. Among all our moves, we somehow acquired all this extra furniture (thank goodness we finally have a house big enough for it all). Oh, and at last count, we have five desks. I don't know how it happened, either. See, I’m the exact opposite of you– we have about four dressers and three bed frames (but only two mattresses).
