Doctors, Errands, and Parcels

Today’s post is a bit of a mixed bag from the last two days 🙂 I have the cutest little office assistant with me, so I’ll keep it short and sweet, like her.

Brady took Dekker to the eye doctor yesterday. Its become their little date. Dekker had the eye drops at his last appointment, so we anticipated this appointment would be nice and quick. While Dekker was super cooperative, they could tell his eyes had worsened.

So, in went the drops, and Dekker belly laughed through them. If you’ve known Dekker a long time, you know how HUGE that is! He handled it, and he and Brady went down to the cafeteria to pass the time with some treats.

Sure enough, they left the hospital with a new prescription. His vision itself isn’t worse, but the shape of his eyes have changed, making his astigmatism worse. So he’ll be getting new glasses soon! Thank the Lord for the “Kids See Free” program at Superstore!

Laela and Dekker were both at school today, but Brady was home! So he and I and the three little ones ran into the city for some errands.

We shopped Superstore, Costco, got a bday gift for a party Dekker is going to this weekend, as well as a bday gift for Laela. I can’t BELIEVE she’s almost five!!! I also got my side shave redone. It was very productive. Though I had to take a picture of this and have a brief ten second rant about it.

Ok. I get it. Sometimes people pump gas on the wrong side because the lines at Costco are long. I understand that. Its ok. And both of these vehicles are technically in the lines. But with the nozzles sticking out like that, it would’ve been very close for us to try and drive out in between them. The man standing there made it impossible. GAH!!! Pet peeve alert!! I’m done now. Its probably our own fault for driving a bus anyway.

When we got back to down, we hit the post office and picked up FOUR parcels!!! I love when everything finally shows up! Lol! In it came Laela’s other birthday present, a little dress for her, some socks, and a couple of different sizes of jeans for me. I’ll pick what fits best and send the rest back. I also discovered the empty magnetic palettes at Sephora were on sale for 50% off the other day, so I bought two to organize all my ColourPop loose shadows and singles I’ve gotten through my sample bags. Yay for having all that in one (or two) places finally! Only one more parcel coming in the mail at this point 🙂 And you guys will definitely know about it when it comes!

Its been a fun couple of days, and likely this evening will also be fun! I’ve been recently informed that I’m going on a date! Yay! I haven’t been as diligent with Operation Hailey and Brady Hang Out as I should be, and I’m thankful Brady made this one happen. Its amazing how intentional we need to be about getting ONE night out a month, but I think its a healthy, reasonable goal. Just have to make it happen! Its happening tonight, and I’m thankful for it 🙂 Friday niiiiight!!
