What we did: Mom and Jenny drove up to Door County (Sturgeon Bay) for the morning to go Vera Bradley purse shopping. What a successful trip that was! I didn't even go, and I made out with a Mesa Red Bowler! It is the best purse ever!!! I LOVE it! It's big enough to hold a pack of wipes, a couple of diapers, and some toys for Isaiah, but not too big to use as just a purse.
While they were gone, I took Shelby, Holly, and Isaiah to Toys R Us for some belated birthday shopping for Shelby. She turned 7 in May, and I thought it would be fun to let her pick out her present this year. Shelby chose a new baby doll, baby swing, and clip on high chair. Not forgotten, Holly is enjoying her new horse that she named Blackie. When we got home, I got out the baby name book for Shelby so that she could name her baby. While she was looking at that, I dug out a preemie outfit of Isaiah's, a baby tub, a baby bottle, etc. for her to play with. The baby's name -- Emily.
Barnes & Noble was an enjoyable outing for all of us. Isaiah doesn't quite get how to play at the train table yet. He was only interested in turning the train cars over and spinning their wheels (surprise, surprise). We wanted to stop in at Archiver's while we were on that side of town, but Mom forgot her coupons at the house (that's what she gets for bringing so many Veras on vacation - hehehe). She did find a couple of things that she liked at Scrapbook Memories next to the mall, though. By the way, the Archiver's coupons - not so good for July. They were a little disappointing.
What we ate: Leftover day! (We have a stuffed refrigerator.)

It looks and sounds like you are having a nice visit with your family. I hope my parents' visit in August goes just as well. My trip with Abby and the kids to MN went well...Paul caught his first fish and swam in the Lake! We can't wait to see you....
