The plan for today was outdoor church this morning and playing the afternoon by ear. However, after such a fun and busy day yesterday, Rowan had a really brutal night. We discussed our plans at 5:00 this morning, and decided that our zombie feelings paired with the promise of the heat not rising above ten degrees were enough to keep us home.
But of course, if you know me, you know my affinity for the rain, and being out in rainy overcast weather. So we took our sweet time getting ready for the day, and ventured out to the city. We had a truly lovely day out and about in the grey, and while we accomplished a few good things, we were still able to get home in good time before supper, with still lots of playtime. It was a wonderful day!
A couple of little points of interest 🙂
I couldn’t resist a beautiful little sleeper at Costco, and I learned that Rowan fits into six month things very well! I know, many kids do at this point , especially my chunky ones, but I have been holding onto the three month stuff with a vengeance. However, his three month sleepers are beginning to have plunging necklines. This new sleeper definitely points out that its time to find him some new jammies. Big boy!
On a completely different note, our cashier at Sueprstore mentioned that the granola bars we were buying not only were on sale, but had a coupon for an additional $2 off, and she took her time ringing our stuff through so I could run and grab a couple. How nice is that?! I never look at those coupon tear pads, and I wonder how often I miss deals! So nice of her.
Last exciting thing of the day is that we bought a chair 🙂 A really cool one! This weekend, our town put on garage sales. We had family out, so we weren’t around home that day and missed the event. Today, lots of people around town were posting what they had left on our Facebook Buy & Sell page, and I saw this beautiful antique clam back chair for a really good price! We jumped all over it. I’m SO excited to find it a place in our home!! I’m not sure what my exact plan for it is, but its so cool looking now, and would also be awesome reupholstered. Its a pretty lofty goal for me though. I’ve only ever redone my dining chairs, and that was with Jerilee and some additional help from someone VERY skilled in the business. SOOO that might take a while. But I’m really excited to have it around, and use it in the meantime.
The end. I think thats all I have to share today. It was a great day, and I feel really positive right now. Best of all, I JUST remembered that Brady and I have double doubles for the tub!! Yes please!
