The tv should go on the large wall with the two windows centered. Then a sectional in the middle. The way it’s set up now the couch and tv are way too far away from each other.

I would center the TV on the other wall then do a storage unit or cabinets on either side of the TV. Then have the couch on 1 side of the TV and 2 chairs on the other side with a coffee table in the middle. The you can have a sitting area on the wall where the couch is now and on the other side behind the 2 chairs you can have a play area. This will make your new room look even bigger instead of what you you are wanting to do.

Everything is coming together nicely. I’d probably suggest changing the thermostat setting on the water heater because if it’s set that hot it can be a scald risk for your son. They recommend the temp. set to 120 degrees to prevent burns for children. Usually you can google your water heater to find out how to change it.

I was so sick like this with baby # 2 also. 2 boys but both completely different pregnancies! I would do a big sectional. Will be worth it for the whole family to cuddle together! And I would rearrange your living room differently. When you walk into living room I would put the tv straight ahead on that wall between windows. Put a sectional straight in front but pushed to the left wall so you have a walkway into the living room still and do a complete wall of built ins on the right! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ so glad to see you back!

If you got 2 of this type it will give you great seating with little space taken up. I have both cats and dogs. Those shelves would make me nervous as well. Thanks for showing the carpet cleaning machine, it looks wonderful! 💕

DIY built-ins idea is great plus counts for additional content. You might look into your water heater instructions - might have a way to change the thermostat. With my oldest daughter, I was tired a lot but never got morning sickness at all, my second daughter - I got hit with bad morning sickness in the 1st/2nd trimester, but with my son - whoa, I couldn't even walk into a room with heavy food smells and I got sick. I remember asking my gyno why I was so sick all the time, she told me she wasn't 100% sure but did mention that it may be something related to the hormones that don't mesh well with mom's hormones & that's why some moms get that horrible feeling of "all-day sickness". Congrats again to you all on your newest addition!!

I like the idea of closing off door and centering tv on wall you can get a long storage unit for below tv and use some floating shelves for display that looks nice and maybe more cost effective. Just a thought is how long before you do this? If it is going to be awhile you may want to think about what works in mean time. If you do use back wall you need to think about spacing because you have long rectangular livingroom like use. We have 2 couches sitting across from each other with rectangular coffe table in middle and chair at other end. You could do a play area under the long windows and arrange furniture to block view.

Hello! I haven’t finished the whole video yet but I wanted to pop in and suggest a layout for the living room, you said in a previous video you wanted to put a fireplace in there so what I would suggest is getting a sectional (if you want it more formal a large couch and two chairs) I would center them in the room with the back of the couch towards the opening and a chair on each side. The tv mounted above the fireplace and against the window I would put a little reading area and on the other side of the room if you want to put in shelves for decoration I think that would look beautiful if you want to see it on paper I would love to draw something out for you (:

I’ve had a sectional, couch and love seat, couch and two chairs. The sectional works well in a large room, but takes over in a small room. There is more flexibility with a couch and love seat, or couch and two chairs. If you go with couch and two chairs, you might want to consider rocker recliners. You would have a comfortable rocker to rock your baby. We have new furniture, we had custom made. One thing I WOULD’NT do again, is the arms. Our couch arms look similar to what you have. Not enough padding. If your going to lay down on the couch, it’s very uncomfortable unless your using a pillow. Just not enough padding in the arms, but it definitely looks nice, not too bulky. For our couch cushions, we opted for just two larger cushions as opposed to three cushions. This is perfect! I would absolutely get the two cushions. It all depends on what you like! Your kitchen cabinets on video actually look quite nice. I would change the hardware to black, and put in black granite ( maybe with a design in it). The new “in” colors are actually white cabinets and gray walls. My husband and I flipped a house. The real estate agent was also an interior decorator. She suggested the white and gray. It looked super nice!! We did a gray granite counter top with a design. Looked absolutely gorgeous. Keep in mind, white cabinets have a plastic coating on them. In one of my houses, the cabinets on each side of the stove, the plastic cracked and looked awful. I suspect it was from the heat from the stove. Whatever you do, I’m sure it will look nice!!

Glad you’re feeling better. I’m also pregnant with baby boy #2 and the sickness was definitely worse this time. Regarding the furniture, the TV seems really far away from the seating as it currently is set up. It’s hard to tell exactly how big the space is but maybe you could break the room up into two areas, one for TV watching and the other for conversing. You don’t want to fall into the trap of having all the furniture pushed up against the walls. I’d suggest drawing the room to scale on graph paper and then making little furniture pieces and moving them around until you find something you like.

You would then have a space by the two big windows at the front for maybe Carson's toys, and another space to walk out the back door. Love the video, so happy to see you in a new house 💓

Congratulations on the second baby and I’m glad to hear that you’re feeling better. God bless. As far as seating goes honestly it depends on if you’re the type that has people over a lot or not. If you’re just the type that it’s just you and your family then a sectional would be great but if you have people over sometimes then you’re gonna need more seating and different seating so that you’re not just sitting all on top of each other. I would go for a really big couch and loveseat or possibly the two chairs if you plan on having company and things like that but again if it’s just you and your Family then a really nice sectional is perfect. To me built-ins are great because they add value to the home plus extra storage to put things or maybe decorate. To me it’s always a really good idea.
