Yay For IKEA!

We just got back from IKEA. We got Dylan one of those cheap high chairs (since his isnt here and he has nothing to eat in), 2 dressers, a bunch of towels, Alexa a kitty cat pillow, blanket for me, and rigged a bumper pad for Dylan, among the other miscellaneous kitchen items I cant live without (heh). We had dinner there too. Alexa had chicken nuggets and Chris had Swedish meatballs and some kind of sandwich with mayo, boiled egg, and some kind of shrimp looking creature. I had a few french fries and watched them eat their mystery food....lol. I also grabbed a jar of fruit baby food for Alexa, knowing she'd eat that (because Dylan wil still eat some applesauce, so if he eats it, she has to too. Dylan stayed home with MiMi). The trip to IKEA was a nightmare. It was rush hour through Centrum, and there's construction the GPS didnt know out, so we had to make some serious circles to get outta downtown, but we made it there safely (well, as safely as we could with Chris driving a standard.) Today we drove around Wassennaar. That's where The American School of The Hague is and pretty much where all of the Ambassadors live. Gorgeous houses. Very green. Many green parks and paths and walkways. The walkways go up to the beach spelled "Scheveningen" Pronouced, from what I could understand "Sk(hock it)-ay-vee-in-gen." They have many little shops in the town, and cute little second hand shops for kids clothing. I found a hair salon too....abunch. Kinda excited about that. We sat in on Alexa's preschool class today....without her. I'm not ready to show her off in public yet. IKEA was a nightmare with her. All in all I had a great day. Might feet are sore, and we were at IKEA for like 3 hours, but my feet are ok, so mental note, those shoes are ok to wear for short periods of time. Nothing exciting going on here. Chris is putting the dressers together, then he's going to work. So yeah. that's it. BORING.
