Cincy

The girls are in the middle watching a movie while we wait for daddy at Ikea. We bought those green chairs to match their pink little table. They can't wait for it, espcially since Ella loves to draw and color.

We had a great weekend away in Cinncinati. We went to have fun and stay in a hotel to swim, Cincy also has IKEA so that was included! We planned on going to the zoo but, of course, the day we had planned to go was too chilly so we went to a museum which was acutally a 3 museums in 1 (Childrens, Natural History, and Cincy history museum). The girls had so much fun, lots to see and do! We left on Sunday after getting rested up on Saturday from my overnight. We went to the museum first and then to eat and to the hotel to swim. We were at the museum for probably 3 hours so it wore off lots of energy. It was Eva's 1st time enjoying the pool and she didn't like to leave. But she's not as scared as Ella so will probably be a swimming fool soon. (just like grandma Mary :o)). We got a King bed and all slept together that went very well. Eva had trouble falling asleep but once she was asleep, everyone slept until 715 the next morning. Great! We went swimming again and took off for breakfast at Perkins. We then went to Ikea and spent a long time there good thing its family friendly. Ella played in the childrens area for the alloted time frame- 1 hr. and then had snacks while daddy finished paying. Eva had to stay with us because Eva wasnt potty trained although this weekend she has done awesome, only once did she pee in her pants and she told me right away. She said she's not ready for panties yet though but still has been dry since we've been home. Yay, its not far away. We bought a new bed and a table and chairs for the girls. We get it delivered next Wednesday and its so past due but we are so excited to recieve it. We got home early at 6 and had time to play before bed. We probably could have made it to Ella's dance class but it would have been a rush and Ella said she just had too much playing to do. We had a great weekend. Last week was good, had playdates and library time like usual. I have decided that vacations are a lot of work...tired of planning for us being gone and worried about leaving the girls plus getting myself prepared and ready to leave. I'm sure it will all be worth it but happy that vacations are a special thing that doesn't happen too often.
