Today we had Mami-Bella day. Last Friday we actually had Mami-Sofifi day as well, but we both forgot to take pictures. For our day together Bella chose to go to IKEA, walk around, and actually eat lunch there. We got a couple of useful things for the house, some frozen smoked salmon and Swedish pancakes, and got quite a few steps in I guess.
While Bella and I hung out, Sofia and Lionel stayed home and Emma was at orientation downtown. After stopping by the house to drop off the food we went back out again, and hung out a little longer before it was time to go pick Emma up.

Today I actually sat down for easily an hour and a half. I bought this outdoor love seat, and put it on the deck, and it was the perfect spot in the shade.

Today Emma joined our Friday tradition, and for the first time went to Creamy Whip.

After pretty much a full 24 hours of travel, Emma finally arrived in Cincinnati this morning. They arrived really early, at 6:30 am, which meant Lionel and I had to get up really early as well. Bella wanted to come, but she had a cold and needed to rest. And there was no way Sofia was getting up since over the summer she sleeps like a bear. They did help make a welcome sign the night before, and Zoey came with us.
Surprisingly, Emma hung in there without a nap most of the day. She did manage to sleep on the bus from Chicago to Cincinnati, which helped her case. She went out and about with us, but at around 4:00 pm she was finally starting to hit the wall - and so was I - so we took naps. After that she felt like new again, and even drew with chalk outside with the girls.

One of the things I like about summer, besides having plenty of sunshine and warm weather, is that the evenings are great for taking a walk. And since it gets dark later, you actually have time to do something after you come home from work.

After several weeks of travel we were finally here this weekend, and we finally made it to the farmers market. Sofia was still sleeping, but Bella happily came with us.

After several weeks of construction, the girls bathroom is finally done!
