I *think* we have decided to go with the bigger place and not wait anymore for the smaller one (which I love, but may not be available at all). The big one is at the very top of our price range, but we won't outgrow it. We got the landlord to come down another $100, he had previously already come down 300, before we got there. I think we can get the brokers fee down to 10%. If we purchase some wardrobes to make up for the lack of closets it should be ok. I already think I found a cheap used washer dryer.
The little one was beautiful with no brokers fee, but it just felt like waiting for it, to possibly lose this one was too risky. I just had this image of myself living there, being in the beautiful open kitchen, watching B. play in the living room, but it wasn't perfect either. B.'s bedroom would have been teensy. We could still wait 10 m,ore days and hopefully find out about it, but even that date didn't feel certain.
ok enough- validate me please before my head explodes.

I literally laughed when I read this. I totally agree with Danielle. I think it'll be awesome to have that extra space. And buying wardrobes isn't that bad either; we have one in our bedroom because we don't have that big of a closet there. Go for it!
