We were very excited to learn that there is an IKEA here and since we are going to be moving into a new house in the next few weeks (Yes, we sold our other house but that is another post entirely.) we decided to head over there and see what they have to offer in the way of shelving, kitchen tables and sofa sleepers (for all of our guests). 🙂 One of the first things we noticed when we first walked in is there is a place to drop off your kids so you can shop. Awesome!!! We waited patiently for our turn, filled out the paperwork and made sure the boys met their height requirements. Ooops!!! Liam was too tall. God bless him, it took everything he had not to cry right there on the spot. He was SOOO wanting to go in and watch whatever cartoon it was they had playing. He had been watching it the entire time we were waiting in line. They did give him a coupon for a free ice cream cone in their cafe though, so it wasn’t a total loss. Colm didn’t care if his brother couldn’t go. He was still game and off he went to play while Liam, Sean and I went to go check things out. We found several sofas that we liked and also some shelving, but we couldn’t agree on a kitchen table. Grrr. We didn’t end up buying anything, but when it gets closer to our closing date we will definitely be heading back. It was almost time to go pick up Colm (they can only stay in childcare for an hour) so we went and got him, picked up some ice cream cones at the cafe and headed home.
