She got to see our last apartment, but she hasn't been out here for a few years, and since we just moved, I figured I should post some pictures so she can see just how rat and thug-free our current digs are.
See, mom? Not a rat in sight.
(I hope....)
**** Addendum****
My mom read this post and was most concerned that everyone would give her the Bad Mom Award for not visiting more often. So, I would like everyone to know the following: 1)my mom is AMAZING, and 2)she LOVES me. Sorry, mom.

wait..you got some new stuff. Right? It's looks great--I'm loving it and missing NYC at the same time. Sigh.
Very cute. Not that I'm surprised by that, Your Royal Tasteful Stylishness.
And I still think you're trying to guilt Sylvia into coming for a visit.
I love those pillows on the bed!
Has your style always been so retro/Miggy-like? Or maybe she has YOUR style. You two definitely have taste.
Love it. This looks completely different than your style just a year or two ago. Where in the world did all your shabby chic stuff go?
miggy- you gotta love craigslist in the city!! we've been a tad craigslist crazy these days. also i miss you. also that.
redstarmama- you might be right. i may or may not be campaigning to get my mom out here again. mom, is it working?
kendra- you made them, you crazy awesome seamstress!! hey, everyone- props to kendra for making me such fantastic pillows!
ellen- i'm kind of taking classes right now on how to be cool like miggy. it's going to be a while before i graduate, though. all these required classes on general awesomeness. i used to be super into the whole shabby-chic thing, but now i find myself wanting to live in a world that looks like Mad Men got married to I Love Lucy and they had a baby and the baby is our apartment.
skt- you're right- it is totally different from my style a few years ago. paul found our couch on craigslist for a steal, and we loved it so much we kinda got in to the whole mid-century thing. we sold a lot of our stuff on cragslist, and most of our current furniture we found on craigslist....oh, craigslist. mental note to write craigslist a love letter.
Um...will you come decorate my place? Gorgeous home Andrea!
decorate my house, please. when you come out, will you please go shopping with me? for a very long time?
Oh my gosh this post made me miss you so much more than I normally miss you on a day to day basis (which is saying a lot because I miss you guys TONS!) We haven't even seen your place! :( You apartment looks beautiful! Hopefully now I will picture it in my head when I am talking to you and not your old place. MISS YOU!!!!!
andersons- deal. as long as you let me play with your cute kids. i drive a hard bargain, no?
miriam- uh....shopping? for a really long time? my answer is....YESSSSSSS!!!
jeppson family- LOVE YOU!!!
ryanne- oh, my. how i miss you guys!!! your comment made me want to jump on a plane. maybe i will. right now.
