Today, the plan was to drive to Dalmeny and check out a sit and stand stroller. I’ve looked around for double strollers, thinking I would consider one but would more likely haul my kids around in carts, with Dekker in the front and the baby in the bucket. However, Dekker grew out of his bucket early on, as ion before he was four months old, if I remember correctly, so if baby #2 is similar at all, I figured a double stroller might be worth looking at anyway. Turns out Brady didn’t have to work today so we filled it up!
We went and look at/purchased a great second-hand double stroller around 1pm. Its in great shape, matches our carseat, and folds smallers than our original stroller!!! Don’t ask me how, because I don’t know, but its awesome!
We headed to the city from there and went to Dollarama. I’ve been meaning to get there for months now and just keep not making it! I like to kill a lot of time there, so I figured today would be the day. However, I had scheduled a leg wax too close and we were in and out of Dollarama within 15 minutes. However, we got everything we went in for, plus some candy 🙂
Some people think waxing is torture and awful and only crazies do it willingly, but I LOVE it! I’ve been waxing my legs since…I think I actually started in high school, so for a solid six years anyway. Feels like magic. I love the girl that waxes my legs. She is such a sweetie, and has complete and total baby fever. She has been living vicarious through me now for both pregnancies. I feel so special when I see that she’s marked how many weeks along I am on my chart. She’s super adorable. I love my wax appointments.
After that, we headed over to the last minute chiropractor appointment I made today. I was so happy Dr. Mike had openings! I was pretty messed up in my back and neck, so he straightened me up good and proper and gave me instructions on how NOT to travel this weekend. We’re going to spend a couple days with my brother and sister in law, and their two kids, which I’m really looking forward to! But not so much the drive. I guess sitting for a couple hours of end is going to do me in, so the drive may turn out to be longer than expected. Totally worth it!!!
Our last thing to accomplish was a little bit of Superstore. It went really fast and we even found something we thought we may have to duck into Walmart for. Win! Of course, Superstore was the last thing on the list, but we remembered going by Costco that we were out of regular coffee. If you don’t already drink Kirkland coffee in your house, its time to start. Going from Maxwell House to Kirkland was CRAZY! So much more flavor! And then going from Kirkland to Folgers (which I bought because it was on sale) was so disappointing. Seriously guys, Kirkland. So yes, we hit Costco. I ran in for coffee and came out with coffee, pizza, and a sleeper. So sue me.
Dekker is down for the night, our bath is running, and laundry is drying. It was a great, successful day! And I’m sooo looking forward to tomorrow!
