Just the 3 of us

Only a few more days with just this little cutie keeping me company. 

Silly little things I want to remeber about her - she loves putting on her winter hats making her look like a mini-gangster.  She still loves her booster seat, not on a chair though, just sitting on the floor.  And she's eating a bowl full of carrots - seriously, never thought this day would come : )


2 weekends ago we had a fun family day - likely our last as a family of 3!  We started out with breakfast at Ikea.  Not the best we've ever had, but for less than $9 and no waiting, we'll be back.  Someone thouroughly enjoyed their french toast sticks and apple juice.

Next we hit up the Mall of America Nickelodeon Universe.  We had some leftover ride coupons so she rode the big rigs...


And the Diego bus!


She loved this one!


Last stop was at the American Girl store - one we hesitated on because it's dangerously expensive, but we decided to check it out.  Pat was shocked at the prices and the sheer insanity of some of the girls/their moms getting matching outfits, hairstyles, tea parties, etc.  I'm not going to lie, I was smitten.  As a little girl, this would have been my dream.  I told Pat - this is what Grandmas are for! 

American Girl is genius in that all of the dolls (in the baby section anyways) were at kid height with all of the accessories out to play with.  We could hardly tear her away.

Not quite octo-mom status, but working it with 4 babies!


We came home with a baby carrier so Fin can match mom with her Ergo


Tonight was a perfect night for the park - we taught her what an underdog entails - again she loved it!



In other news, I had my last day of work today and with legs that look like this - it's about time.

Induction is scheduled for Friday morning!! We are equal amount of nerves (me) and excitement (Pat).
