Ikea

Because I had to work on Sunday, today started a 5-day weekend for me. I haven't been to Ikea since I was VERY pregnant - I'm just over 32 weeks in the picture below (and yes, I was shopping in a wheelchair by this point in my pregnancy. It wasn't pretty).


As usual, I wanted to get S&Z out of the house this morning so Derek & I decided to head to Ikea. The kids were very happy when they saw the shoes and coats come out, and they waited patiently by the door to be loaded into the car.


Ikea is great because they have "family friendly" parking close to the door. They have these neat little carts parked nearby that worked great for us each to take a kid.


After doing some shopping, we had lunch in the Ikea cafeteria. S&Z love being out and watching all the people so they had a great time.




Once we were done eating, it was time to pack them up again and finish our shopping.


They were exhausted and provided each other lots of goofy entertainment while we waited to check out.




Our best purchase of the trip is definitely the tent we found. I have wanted a tent since we played in Sydney & Ivy's a few months ago. I figured it would be a great addition to our tunnel.


Derek set it up while they "napped" (another story entirely). I took some pictures of them checking it out once they got up!





Even Salvador wanted to come and see what the excitement was all about,


We heart Ikea, especially on a Thursday morning when it's not very busy :)

Silas' Blog

Well it's been a busy 3 years since I last posted! Stay tuned as we may have more posts coming now that it looks like I have a new contributor... Silas recently read a book called "Starting Your Own Blog", and now he is bound and determined for us to let him start his own blog! We convinced him that he should start out by drafting content and a posting calendar. We made templates this morning and he wrote his first "post" today!

Summer Nights

As we hit the end of July we are relishing the relaxed summer nights around here. Walks to the corner store after work- Kitten snoozes in the window- Playing outside after dinner- And after dinner bike rides in the park aplenty. The best part is when they ride down the "big hill" out of the woods and we make the loop home. These are the days.

Silas, 7/26/17

The context for this post is that S&Z started two weeks of daily swimming lessons in the outdoor town pool on Monday. The beginning of this week also happened to start with two of the coldest days of the summer!
