Outside

Emi and I hung out with Bowen this morning while Kimber got her nails done. For part of the time, we went to the park but because our stroller only fits one child, Bowen rode in the stroller and I put Emi in the front pack. To get to the park, we walk past the rec center, and I had many endearing looks from parents. haha. One lady stopped to ask how old they both were. I'm sure they were all thinking I'm a rock star for having a 1 and 2 year old haha. But nope! Just one is mine.

Then Emi and I worked on the pantry together. Putting labels on things just hits different.haha. I love it and can't wait to order more for the different areas in our house.

A large part of me wanted to sit down with a tape measure and measure every label out perfectly on each container. I have a tendency to do those sorts of things, but I tried to resist the urge and just be okay with eyeballing everything.

They just look so good!

It's beautiful :')

The Prestige Property guys texted me right before Emi's nap time to see if it was okay if they come and do some more work. It honestly cracked me up because they've texted me right before nap time several times in the past week, which has been a bit tricky...but I've learned if people offer to come do work on your house you let them. Even if it interferes with nap time. The work they did today was add baseboards and an electrical outlet to the place the pony wall was. 

Check out the baseboards and electrical outlet.

I also got some good and bad news today. Our door will be getting installed Monday, but our flooring that was supposed to come in August should now be coming sometime (they're not sure when) in September. You win some, you lose some.

For dinner I made pizza, and then Emi and I headed to running club together (since Marty won't be home until later tonight). Everyone thinks she's so cute and that I'm so amazing for pushing her in her stroller--but honestly I'm like it totally gives me an excuse to go slow.haha. 

Miss puffers. She did great on our run.

I love how she crosses her ankles. She does this in her high chair too.

After running club, I put Emi to bed and I've just been catching up on blogging. It's 9:15 and Marty's still not home, but I'm hoping he gets here soon. I'm glad he's socializing for work and I know it's important but I still miss him!

Nick's Fish House

We went to the breakfast buffet at the Fairmont in the morning. My favorite part is loading my plate with all the yummy fruit they have. (Papaya and Hawaii just go together.) Emi loves clenching her fists and making a funny, strained face. haha. We took a walk down to the beach before heading to Twin Falls. It was pouring rain when we got out of the car at the start of the hike, and I wondered what the rest of the hike was going to look like, but it ended clearing up at just the right times. I love how Emi has curls in Hawaii. On our way back we stopped at some food trucks and came back to relax before dinner time. For dinner we went to Nick's Fish House. This place is special to Marty and I because it's where we got engaged (and their Macadamia Nut brownies are top notch which adds to the special-ness). In the evening we went back to our hotel room and watched an episode of "The Floor" before heading to bed.

Last day in Paris

We scheduled a tour for St. Chapelle, Conciergerie, and the outside of the Notre Dame for this morning. I mostly just wanted to see St. Chapelle, but because we've been so busy seeing other things, when I went to get tickets on their website they were sold out. Luckily I found a tour through "Get Your Guide" that we could do that would take us through the chapel this morning. Marty and I arrived for our tour this morning and started making our way to St. Chapelle as a tour group when we found out that the employees of St. Chapelle were on strike so nobody would be seeing St. Chapelle for the day. It was a bummer, but strikes are very common in Paris. Really we just lucked out getting to experience an important part of their culture ;) With our tour canceled, we made our way to Sacre Coeur and Montmartre. The basilica reminded me a lot of the pretty churches in Jerusalem. The one thing Marty and I found odd was that there were signs all over inside the chapel asking guests

Marty! Lizzie!

Emi and I went to Chuze in the morning and then went to the park after with friends! Ronny, Jules, Evi, Isla, and Emi (of course!). We tried out a new park, Spearwood, and the kids liked it. Emi and I stayed a bit longer after everyone left and she made a new friend. It was this cute Chinese boy whose name sounded kind of like "Ethan." Anyway, his mom was doing the sort of thing all moms do at the park--cheering on their child as they try to climb up a ladder or try something new--but in Chinese. She was doing this, and then the most interesting thing happened. Emi started imitating what the mom was saying. It was so cute! Even though there was a language barrier between the mom and I, she could also tell what Emi was trying to do. It's amazing what the brain can do--especially children's brains. They are like little sponges! Anyway, I just thought that was really cool. On another note... Emi's started calling Marty and I by our first names half of the time. Today
