Baby Jail

My mother in law is keeping the kids this weekend so I can catch up on everything that needs to be done. That list is just too long to talk about on here but the main thing I have been doing is returning things I have bought that either don't fit or we didn't like or didn't need. Standing in line with the fab 5 for a return is just out of the question. So, this has been a nice break and a nice time for them to get to stay with their Nana.

Last night, Adam and I went on a hot date-our first in maybe a year???? We went to eat and then we went to Lowes. At Lowes, Adam bought me the BEST GIFT EVER-a reinforced steel extra wide door gate!!!! Well, actually I won't know if it is the BEST GIFT EVER until the kids get home to test it. We have gone through just about every gate out there and it doesn't even slow the kids down so I am very excited to try this one out. It is 36 inches high and is extra wide so the kids shouldn't be able to get into the kitchen now. For those that don't know, when we moved back into this house, the cabinet doors were in terrible condition so we took them down, sanded them, primed them, and planned to paint them. Then, things got out of control with Weston's health so everything was put on the back burner so we could take care of him. Needless to say, for months Sutton's favorite activity has been to get out tupperware or all of my canned goods-or anything else his little heart desires. I can't wait for Sutton to come home and see his new baby jail gate =)
