New apartment

So we moved into the new apartment about a month and a half ago. An now that we are basically all moved in, we need some stuff for the apartment to finish it off.

1. I want the paint the Kitchen, it is too white. I guess we will just repaint when we move out.
2. We need a table and chairs for the dining/living area, I hope to get those from IKEA soon.
3. Collin needs a bed-side table and lamp so that he can read in bed without being on my side.
4. It would be nice to have some sort of guest bed for the 2nd bedroom/office, people can sleep on the couch, but it doesn't provide much privacy.
5. I would like to get frames for several prints and photographs, I love our movie posters but sometimes its nice to have some traditional art/photographs
