November 13, 2006

Got our Swedish ID#s today. Called Eva to let her know. She is going to print out the forms we need to get the IDs. Also, Eva mailed me some brochures of places to take the kids. Very cool.

This morning the kids and I walked down to the baby store (Babyproffsen). I bought a stroller for Lilli to ride in and got a board that attaches to the back for Tipton to stand and ride on. Spent way more money than I had planned to on the stroller, but the smaller/cheaper stollers can't have the riding board attached to them. But anyway, the stroller works great. We drove to Triangeln and walked down to Gray's. Found lots of good stuff at Grays! They have poptarts, but I didn't buy any. I did buy a bottle ofA1 sauce for Dave. And a package of Oreos for the kiddos (cost 95SEK - that's roughly $12 uSD!) And a bottle of pancake syrup and a can of refried beans. Then we went to the toys tore (a treat for the kids since they were being so good.) It rained on us on the way back to the car. Need to go back to Babyproffsen and buy a rain canopy for the stroller. We stopped at the "McDrive" on the way home and got lunch.

Clair Potter from Soderkulla called. I'm meetingwith her tomorrow at 2:00 to talk about when Tipton can start school. This afternoon we had some excitement when Tipton tripped and smacked his nose on the floor. When he stood up, crying, his nose was GUSHING blood! There was blood all over the floor, on the balloon he was holding, all over his face. It was a good 5 minutes before the bleeding stopped.

Day 11 Things I've Learned
1) Need to get a rain bonnet for the stroller
2) I can buy poptarts at Gray's (for a small fortune)
3) Having a stroller with a riding board opens up a whole new world of things to do/places to go with the kids!
