We hung out with Grandma's all weekend. Friday after work I got home and you and dad had been at the park most of the afternoon having a blast! We just hung out in the backyard for a few. Then we went in and had dinner, played, you watched some Dora and fought going to sleep.
Saturday morning daddy went to work so it was just you and me kiddo. We took the car to drop it off for an oil change then Grandma met us there and we went shopping! You were SO good - as always. We dragged you everywhere and you didn't complain once!
After Grandma picked us up we went to Pier 1 Imports to get Grandma Donker a birthday gift. There were some kids running around the store and you wanted to play too. Come to find out they were an acquaintance of mine's children. They were SOOOO cute with you. The girls name was Daisy and she was all about you. They took your shoes off and tickled your feet, carried you around, got the biggest kick out of the words you said and they even wanted to take you home with them. You were sad to leave them but we had to finish shopping.
Then we went next door to Children's Place where Grandma bought you some darling, darling hot pink sandals, then a cute outfit - stretch pants that look like jeans and a yellow t-shirt with skull and crossbones on it. After that store we drove downtown to lunch. The place we wanted to go was closed so we walked down the block to Barbacoa. You were having a blast standing up, eating, playing with your food, taking sips of all our drinks, laughing, and just being so dang cute and happy! Grandma and I were getting the biggest kick out of you. Plus you looked super cute in your outfit and new shoes - black pants and a zebra balloon style shirt with pink and white flowers around the collar.
After lunch we got back in the car and you fell asleep. I rant into Target to get some b-day cards while you and Grandma were in the car. Then I ran into Petco for Grandma to get dog food for her dogs then when I came out to the car you were awake. Grandma woke you up! She was trying to make your head more comfortable and you woke up, so we all went into Home Depot. We were getting Grandma Donker a planter full of plated flowers for her birthday. we found the pot we wanted and put it in the cart with you and then you climbed inside of the pot!! We were laughing hysterically!!! We were both super sad that we left our phones in the car and didn't get a picture. Bummer!!
After Home Depot we went home, ate dinner, and hung out until daddy got home. You are totally diggin' hot dogs lately, so that is what you had for dinner.
Sunday morning you didn't wake up until almost 11a.m. You are so freakin' adorable when you wake up. The first thing you asked for when you woke up was M&M's. Grandma gave you some the day before and you were loving them, so I gave you a few while I made french toast for breakfast with strawberries. I have to say the french toast was quite tasty! I gave you syrup to dip it in.
But somehow the syrup got in your hair, all over your chair and clothes! So I carried you while you were still in your chair up to the bathroom for tub time!!
You had blue M&M all over you.
After tub time I got you dressed in your new cute outfit, cleaned up the house a bit and watched Dora with you until Grandma Shelly came and picked us up. We were headed to Grandma Donker's to celebrate her birthday! On the way there I had you sign Grandma's birthday card and you did such a good job. You take your drawing very seriously and you get very detailed, it's really cool to watch you. On the card was an elephant with a polka dot skirt and you colored in the polka dots so carefully and was very methodical. Then after that you fell asleep for the rest of the car ride which was good considering you didn't have a nap all day. We made it to Grandma Donker's house after a stop at the store to get her a birthday cake. Grandma and Grandpa were SO excited to see you! We played with your zoo and animals while the Grandma's ran to pick up Chinese take out then you wanted to go outside so we played in the dirt for a few. Then the G-ma's got home and we had dinner. You were hungry and ate a ton! You are a growing girl! Then you were done so Grandma Donker turned on a show for you upstairs. We were all convinced you were going to fall asleep, but you didn't. You were getting kind of grouchy and you wanted nothing to do with me. You just wanted your Grandma's. Seriously you would yell if I came near you and swat me out of your way.
Then we had cake and ice cream and sang Happy Birthday to Grandma. You got a kick out of all of us singing. It was time for us to head over where dad was home waiting for us. We got home and you made up for being grouchy earlier and cuddling with me. You were SO super tired but you kept fighting it and wouldn't go to sleep. Daddy put you to bed again for a second time at 9:30p.m. You were loopy tired.
Thank you for a fabulous weekend and for being so fun, cute, easy going and wonderful.
It's Monday and I am missing you liek crazy. You are home with dad today and I know you two are going to have a wonderful day together.
I Love You!
Love,
mommy
