Arief now has his own room (70% complete) with the new IKEA mattress. It is a single bed but I doubt that Arief will sleep there for now; he sleeps with us. But we will encourage him to utilize his room for his evening naps or for playing with his toys. We also make changes to our 1st Floor Family Area; adding the new TV Bench, Computer table, two seat sofa and an LCD TV. Previously we only have my sofa recliner and 29" TV; the sofa is in our master bedroom and the 29" TV is downstairs at the living room :-)

Our beautiful lawn...
Finally, after nearly 9 months in our house, we decorate our lawn. I think we finally decided to do our lawn after getting fed-up with the weeds. One of Eliza friend in Telekom have a sister who is into this nursery business. So we finally gave them a call and arrange for a discussion at our house. They viewed the vicinity and discuss on the type of grass and plants. Finally we make the decision to put RM1K as our budget to beautify our lawn. We leave the creative part of beautifying our lawn to them. After 4 days of work that started last Monday, we finally have our beautiful lawn. It was creatively designed with borders, plants, walkway and carpet grass. We even had a small palm tree in-front of our house for landmark :-)
IKEA Sofa Bed...
We were on the hunt for a sofa bed. There are a lot of offerings from the local furniture shop apart from IKEA but considering our near-bad experience with CAVENZI on our current sofa delivery and the excellent customer service from IKEA; we opted for IKEA for our next big purchase. No doubt it is a bit expensive but their warranty and services convinced us to go back to IKEA. Initially we were interested in Beddinge priced at RM875 (within our budget). The only issue is the colour; well we can still tailor-made the covers to suit our living room colour (brown, black and cream); but still it doesn't resemblance a normal sofa and it would obviously stand-out in our living room (just like Martin Crane recliner). The normal sofa bed cost a bomb @ RM2K above.
As I was about to leave IKEA, I went to check out their "as-is" section. And I found the perfect sofa bed. Dark brown in colour, in suede style fabric. And it looks like a sofa. Seats two comfortably. Then I check for the price; RM1,097.50 and it was 50% off from the original price. At that moment I know that this sofa bed would be ours. So in the evening, we went to IKEA and purchased the sofa bed; expecting the delivery this saturday at 3pm. Actually, the sofa bed was just placed at the "as is" section that particular morning. It was fate that I was on MC yesterday, went to IKEA and found the sofa bed :-)
