6月8日 I love me some ikea!Ikea is a store wait...that does it no justice. It is a mecca of all things assembled with an allen wrench! Three floors of oooooh and aaaaaaaah and oh oh oh look! Well for me anyway, for my husband it's 3 floors of "no stop quit don't" with the children as I am in my happy place rendering me simply unable to deal with unruly children. Actually the kids did pretty well and enjoy the cafeteria and the milk and cookies (which are FREE btw everyday) for snack. We haven't been in over a year perhaps even two since last we descended on this glorious blue and yellow building and boy how things have changed. So many more lines of things from silverware to outdoor furniture, fabric to storage solutions. It is just so much fun. We bought dressers for our bedroom as ours were dying a very slow and painful death. After Jeremy had them put together and in our room I actually fought with my dejected dresser and got into the bottom drawer, it was almost like shopping--clothes i hadn't seen in months! We bought each of the children a storage contraption from the trofast line. It amazes me how simply it went together and how much we were able to organize the rooms. Smarta is turning 6 soon, and 6 is the barbie age in our house. Let me digress and tell the story of how barbie came to be delayed in our house. Smarta was 2 and asked for barbies....maybe even not quite 2 and we decided she was too little and could have them when she was older. We told her in a generic "when you are older" type of way to which she responded "how about when I'm 7?". Sounded good to us so 7 it was. She hasn't asked since and we've been simply waiting for 7 to be upon us. She got a barbie a couple holidays ago and the sweet baby opened it and looked at her and said "Thank you but this isn't appropriate for me right now but my mom will put it up until it is" all her all on her own not prompted by Jeremy or me. Since then we've decided she's mature enough to handle barbie a year early. Digression ended. Since barbie will be arriving within the next 2 wks, in bulk from the sounds of all the people who are up in arms over her delay, we needed to go to Ikea and get storage. This trofast thing is awesome they have small containers that will have space for all things itty bitty and barbie. And on the Ballio front they have large bins that all things chunky and super hero fit. Seriously check it out (www.ikea.com) search for trofast. Okay i'm rambling......but oh is it an excited ramble! I'll have to post some pictures later of the organization beauty before it's destroyed! 引用通告此日志的引用通告 URL 是： http://adventuresinmotherhood.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!79371AC83ACBBA8D!167.trak 引用此项的网络日志
