It was our last chance to get out today, and we needed to. We didn’t have TONS to do, but we needed to get some groceries and run a few errands. Luckily everything was open, and it was actually possible. Though it was freezing! Not that it bothered us when we were inside. Solly had his first toga party!
All of our kids have done this at some point, when we put them to bed in a shirt with somewhat of a wide neck. Its pretty adorable. At least we think so. Maybe its just a parent thing…
Once everyone was awake (Ro slept until lunch again) we got some lunch and got everyone dressed and ready to go. Rowan finally got to sport the new headwrap he got for Christmas. I LOVE it!!
Then into coats! I had to ask Brady to take a picture of Solly, and then everyone wanted in, so we got a refreshed picture of all four kids.
I ran into Costco first while Brady and the kids went to fill up. It wasn’t a huge shop but I stocked up on some staples, which is always good. And I found season nine of The Big Bang Theory for $18!! We are so behind in that show, and everywhere I’ve looked, the season costs $35. So this was a huge win 🙂
We ran another errand to two before hitting Superstore.
One bummer about having such a big vehicle now is that we don’t fit into underground parking lots anymore. I should say, we don’t fit into most underground parking lots.
Brady saw the numbers and knew we’d fit, so we went for it. It is SO TIGHT!! As in tight enough that we have to fold our mirrors in to fit. Serious business.
So just because we can fit doesn’t necessarily mean we should fit, hahaha! But hey, we made it work. But MAN it was close!!
We did our Superstore shop, and the kids were completely happy the whole time, which was a treat. I love how much our kids love grocery shopping. Drama free, which is HUGE. The cookies at the end are a good incentive too.
I love you Brady!!!
Go back and look at Dekker again, and then Laela again! Their smiles are the same!!!
Rowan was SO proud of how funny he was being here!! He happily held this face while I fumbled to get the camera on my phone ready. It was hilarious.
A quick stop for coffee, and we made it home. Now, everything is put away, and Brady tidied up the floor in the pantry, which is AWESOME! We had a diaper box in there of who knows what, and now its gone, freeing up TONS of space! Soon, I’ll make Dekker’s lunch to prepare for him going back to school tomorrow, and gather up whichever Christmas gift he chooses to bring along, being that he has show and tell on his first day back. Reality begins again TOMORROW! Sadly, I’m not all the way ready :/ Still feeling somewhat under the weather here. But I think its just me now, so I can handle myself. If the kids are healthy, and my husband is strong enough to make it to work, I’m healthy enough to be at home with my kids. We’ve got this.
I hope you are all enjoying the beginning of 2017. I’m really happy to see the new year, and praying that it only gets better from here!
Such adorable pictures 🙂 Feel well, my dear.
Thanks mama! These cute faces make everything feel a little better 😉
