The other exciting part of our day was a visit from the UPS man! Every single time I leave Texas to come back to Chicago, I inevitably have more than I can pack in my suitcase. Mimi always ends up shipping a box. This time, the box included some awesome hand-me-down’s from Charlie’s cousin Dali!

One item was this dress that we originally bought for Dali in Hawaii LAST year. We tried to buy another like it for Charlie in Hawaii this time, but couldn’t find one! I’m glad this little dress will get so much use!!Something else of note: we bought our china cabinet off of Craigslist for super-cheap when we moved into our current apartment. It’s not the nicest in the world, but it does the job. Ever since we got back from Texas, Charlie has not been able to stay away from the bottom two doors. I think my options are either to A. figure out a way to keep them closed, or B. move everything out of the bottom part of the cabinet and let it be her kitchen/toy storage. Oh, to have room for an actual china cabinet AND some toy storage for Charlie….
