Girls weekend (well sort of)

Last weekend, we had a little last minute girls weekend planned for My mom, sister and I along with Makenna and Madison.  Alex had to tag along so I could feed him and Bryce decided to come at the last minute, too.  It was a tight squeeze, but we all fit into Grandpa's mini van....

Off to Ikea.... Frozen music blaring away!
We made a pit stop at the outlet malls on the way.... this is how a 7 year old boy entertains himself in the fitting room:)
Notice the window.... mom warned me that "sometimes" dad's window doesn't actually roll back up.  Enter Chicago tolls, 70 mph traffic and 20 degree weather.... .brrrr, that was a chilly ride!  Thankfully we were only a few minutes away from the Oasis and I was able to pull over and get the window up...

We made it to Ikea only to find the play land that the kids were SO excited to play in and us mama's were SOOOO excited for them to play in was closed.  Boo!!!  

Plan B.....load the kids into a cart..

Look, baby Alex woke up - he is WAY more fun that shopping!
Love this one!
Gotta strech out those piggies!
This was just after a blow out poop and emergency change in the car on my lap right after I fed him....and right after Oma opened the van door to expose me feeding him to all the others loading up their goods.  Oops!


Finally, we made it to the hotel!!  Time for Alex's first swim!!

Love this one!
The boys
Chubby boy
First swim!  He loved it!
And this little fish did pretty good, too!



Good morning Alex!




We made it!
