Nesting - our new london flat

With the little one on the way we decided it was time to find a place with a little extra room.  We loved our place in Holland Park but it was a very small and on the 3rd floor (not easy to maneuver with a pram). We thought about trying to make it work since we only have about one year left in our tour but I'm glad we decided to move. 

Our new place is located in Parsons Green which is in southwest London and is a short 5 minute walk to  the Bishops Park, Thames River footpath and the Fulham Football (soccer) Stadium. 

This place also has a few amenities that we were desperately missing:
- full size refrigerator and freezer
- dishwasher 
- outdoor space
I like that the entrance has a security gate that requires a code to enter.
We also have a parking space which would be nice if we had a car. 
The tall cupboard is the frig/freezer.
**still not a fan of the washer/dryer combo.  it takes 2 hours to wash and 2 hours to dry.
In addition to taking all day to do a load of laundry it is also extremely hard on your cloths.

Baby/Guest room
There is a little patch of grass up there and a barbecue.
