This morning I had some alone time while Sharon and Cooper did some Mama stuff. I enjoyed Ikea solo and ran some other errands before heading to a chiropractor appointment to adjust my bum. The adjustment was great, one of my hips was stuck from working out last week. It still hurts but at least I know why and what to do about it. I also checked out Fubon Asian Market.
This afternoon, Cooper and I met our friends at the Better Living Show at the Expo Center. We took the Max train there and spent about an hour sampling foods, checking out cars, doing a little craft and milling about. I think I am turning into a person who doesn't like crowds. Cooper was great and stayed near me the whole time, whew. I walked in and freaked thinking he would take off. He pushed his stroller for a little bit but kept running into people. And it was hard to get the free snacks with Cooper in the stroller because of the crowds of people flocking to food.
After the fun-filled hour at the Expo Center, Cooper and I met Sharon and Dory at Fire Station 19, by our house for their 100th Anniversary Celebration. It was great, we toured the station, talked to lots of firefighters and Cooper played on the original Station 19 fire truck that they now use in parades. He had a blast pretending to be a firefighter, putting out fires and having Mama and I sit next to him in the truck. I am glad we made it there because he loves that fire station.
Tomorrow I am going to take Cooper to A Rat's Tale at Play after Play. I read a review of this theater in PDX Kids Calendar review . The theater has two parts, a story performance for young audiences. Then the kids are invited to play with the performers. I am excited to check it out.
In bathroom news, the plumbing to the sewer is hooked up. It was a big weekend in plumbing, I need to take pictures tomorrow.
