Today we went to Ikea to get quotes for our kitchen cabinets for the home we are building.  Gigi loves Ikea.  What five year old wouldn’t?  She gets to go to Smalland, where she meets friends, colors pictures, and dives through a sea of balls.sdc13093 However, to get into Smalland, you have to be pottytrained and three years old.  That leaves Jude out.  As we left his sister in Smalland, he put his face to the window and called out, “Gigi!  Gigi!”  She ran and jumped and played, he came with us.sdc13080

Our first stop was to the kitchen section, and then we were free to follow Jude’s whimsy.

He also found a few stuffed animals he liked!

Then we moved onto the office furniture.  Jude tried out a few different computers and computer tables he liked, but didn’t find the just right thing that he had in mind.

We went to retrieve Gigi and headed out.  On our way, Jude chose a broom to purchase, as cleaning is a current passion of his.  Future custodian???  Maybe, or he just copies what he sees Daddy doing.
