****My weigh in will be tomorrow***
It's funny how really small things can make your day. Today Ivy and I ventured out to Polo Park to do some returns. She was so good while we were there that I was able to take the time to admire the fall fashion (and wish I had an endless supply of money to deck myself out in it). I absolutely love the Bay at Polo Park. It's such a beautiful store with gorgeous clothes displayed everywhere you turn-some more affordable than others. Mollie told me that the new Dex line was super reasonable and really cute, that is in fact true. Lots of beautiful sweaters, leggings, shirts all around the $25- $40 range if your getting tired of heading out to Joe for all things affordable. A nice relaxing day at the mall with Starbucks and baby.
After the mall we decided to take Daddy coffee and cookies to work. He was surprised that we ventured to the other side of the city to see him. He always totes his daughter around proud as can be when we visit. He called me after we left to tell me that us showing up made his day. It was just the afternoon pick-me-up that he needed to make it through the rest of his day. It makes me happy that he likes when we come visit.
When we got home from our adventure, Ivy went down seamlessly for her afternoon nap (you mom's know what a great feeling that is). I was able to make dinner, tidy up, and I even managed to sit down with a cup of coffee and watch Oprah. My husband walked in with the mail in hand, of course, bills bills bills. Is it just me or is getting the mail depressing? As I opened up our hydro bill I was pleasantly surprised- a $300 credit. When do you ever get a credit?
Anyways, it made me think how the smallest things in life can make you the happiest.
Katie, that was a lovely blog. Not only did you make Jared's day yesterday but you made my day today. I hope you have another good day today. Give baby Ivy a hug from both of us.
Love Dad and Judy
