No More Work (yeah right)

Well my last day of work (paid work anyways) was on Friday. It was kind of bitter sweet. I'm pretty nervous at the thought of having Ethan all by myself all day from now on. With Karthik's parents here I have been pretty lucky because when I get tired I can just hand him over and take a quick nap. Starting Wednesday I'm all on my own. The idea of not having a job to go to on Monday kind of saddens me more than I thought it would. I'm lucky/happy to have the opportunity to stay home with Ethan for a year and a half, but at the same time I like the idea of being able to get away and have a conversation where the other person is capable of responding in coherent sentences. Not to mention I can't defend my purchases as well as I could when my job included a paycheck.

Today we thought we would take Karthik's parents to Ikea. Karthik found some coupons to eat lunch for free there so that pretty much guaranteed a visit.

But before we could go we had to take a little nap....

After a huge lunch we did a lot of walking and needed a little bit of a rest...

As much fun as we had walking though the store we were happy to be on our way home we even had a little bit of a conversation...





After a while, we opted for a friendly game of Dominoes...as you can see I totally kicked butt...
