Rollin' Rollin'

Last week was busy and fun-filled! We made three trips to the cities and kept the wheels rollin'!

On Tuesday evening we went to our first T.wins game at the new T.arget Field. FUN! The four of us Beckers and our friends Bill and Steph rode down together in our car - a smidge squishy, but it worked okay. And Lily was in some kind of mood and talked the entire way.

My lovely dad babysat our babies (my mom was working). Thanks, Dad!!! And all the next day Lily talked about how much fun she had with grandpa.

Anyway, the new field is pretty cool. I'm resistant to change and I had no problems with the dome! I particularly enjoyed the part of the dome that allowed me to stay dry during games. Ha! And when it started to rain on us I gave my husband "the look" and told him how "awesome" outdoor baseball is! The rain came and went several times throughout the game, but we still had a great time. And the T.wins won!

It was a lot of walking which was hard on my back. I sorta suffered for it the next day, but I think it was totally worth it. I also had to pee four times while we were there. The second time I walked out of the restroom, turned around and walked back in. I'm pretty sure Baby is using my bladder as a pillow because I have to pee all. the. time. Good times.

Here are a couple of pics from Trip One to the cities:

A gorgeous rainbow over the field!

Trip Two to the cities took place on Friday. My college roommate Heidi was in town (all the way from Singapore) for her niece's wedding. She managed to squeeze me into her tight schedule while she was here and we met for lunch at a Mexican restaurant. Yum! It was such a short visit, but so good to see her. Love you, Heidi!

Trip Three was on Sunday for Mother's Day. Sometimes I amaze myself with how bad I am at taking pictures. I DIDN'T EVEN GET A PICTURE OF MY OWN MOTHER ON MOTHER'S DAY. I just don't believe it. But here are the pictures I did take:

While T napped at my parents' house Andy, Lily and I went to I.kea. My husband was looking for closet makeover ideas. Our closet has been somewhat of a disaster and needed help. Andy decided that the week before the baby comes would be the perfect time to re-do the closet. And so currently our bedroom and the guest room are an absolute mess with clothes everywhere. I really am thankful for what he's doing, and I'm also trying to stay calm. And positive. And hopeful. That everything will end up back in the closet in an orderly way before the baby comes! =)
So here's Lily in one of many chairs she sat in at the store! She had so much fun and I think she loved being there with us and getting our undivided attention. I loved it too! It's so nice whenever I get the chance to be one-on-one with either of my kids.

She liked this light fixture behind us - the big round one - she had to touch it. =)

She enjoyed this kitchen. Isn't she a little model? =)

More fun at I.kea! She's such a nut!

HAPPY!
