Ikea Trip

On Saturday, we headed up to IKEA to check out some things for our home. Nathan was pretty happy in the back seat with his car magazine...oh dear!

He fell asleep pretty quickly though once we got going. We timed it just right!



Picking up the goods.

They have a pretty organized system there!

We were going to buy this for him.

But he was over it before we were ready to leave.

Good finds!


Loading up our Rav4.


Nathan did SO good on this trip. We were probably in there for 4 hours. We did stop for lunch in their cafe and a potty break or two. But he really was a champ.


We decided to stay overnight in Denver for a family weekend away. We stayed at the Hyatt House. When we got there, they upgraded us to a 2 bedroom suite! Sweet :)


It was really nice to have a full kitchen.

So, Nathan's sleeping quarters only were utilized for about 45 minutes. Matt and I were in the living room when we heard him crying very loudly. Matt went in to check on him and he had thrown up everywhere. Nice. The kid didn't act sick all day. Matt cleaned up the pack 'n play and put the sheets, stuffed animals etc in the tub while I held Nathan in our bed and calmed him down until he fell back asleep. How did I end up with the good end of that deal? :) For the rest of the night he slept between Matt and I. Thank goodness for King beds! He threw up a little 2-3 more times but we were able to catch it quickly and he'd fall right back to sleep. At one point in the night our bodies formed an "H". Nathan had his head butted up against me and his feet up against Matt. It was funny because he kept stretching his little legs out and kicking Matt! Here's a shot I snuck in the middle of the night.


Next morning, he threw up his water but that was it! He had some pancakes at the continental breakfast and he acted pretty normal and not bothered by whatever was going on with his stomach. He loved climbing up on these chairs to get to the table.



We went down for a morning nap after breakfast...and so did Matt and I since we had a short night of sleep. We got a late check out at 2 pm and then headed home!
