Thank you for your brilliance, IKEA

We love IKEA. With their practical solutions, charming Swedish names, and low prices, I don’t know many people who WOULDN’T love that place. I especially love it now that Chase can go in the kids’ play area, “Smaland,” for one hour while we shop. He gets to have fun while we get to actually focus on the shopping task at hand (and perhaps buy more? simply brilliant).

This time at IKEA, we got a large bookshelf for Chase’s room. I don’t think that his Grandma T. (extreme book lover and former bookstore owner) will ever stop buying him books (which is QUITE alright with me, since I enjoy a lot of kids’ books myself). So now, we have a place for all those books and toys to live. We don’t have the bookshelf filled up yet, but that’s a good thing.

And don’t worry, my amazing MAN-husband has not only assembled it in record time, but he’s also cut out the bottom edge to accommodate our oversized baseboards, bolted it into the stud for my peace of mind, and has also taught Chase that if he climbs on it, he may eventually be crushed. So thorough!
