Weekend Adventures

We desperately need a gate on the bottom of our stairs in the basement. I purchased a gate when Adam was a baby, but never installed it because we were able to teach Adam to safely travel down the stairs at a fairly young age. Well that and when you only have one kid it’s easy to keep track of them. Two kids are a lot more of a challenge. So we finished up our lazy Saturday morning with lunch and then packed up the kiddos to go to Menards to get supplies for the gate install. Menards is clear on the other side of town, so on our way home the kids fell asleep. In an impolsive urge Dave and I decided to drive into Eden Prairie to go to Costco. Several food samples and hundreds of dollars later we started heading back home when again we had an impulsive urge to go out for dinner at Bucca’s.
Going out for dinner with the boys was so much fun. They behaved well and Dave even had to switch places with Adam so Adam could sit next to his brother. Adam looked right at Eli and said, “oh Eli, I love you.” And when Eli reached over his tone changed and Adam said, “DON’T Touch my plate!”
 
When we got home we took care of Brockway and then made a quick run to Target and then to the video store.  After we put the boys down Dave and I got to watch a movie.  It was such a great Saturday!
