Today was the day…. at 4 years and 4 days old, we finally turned your car seat around to face forward. You were nearing the maximum height limit, so it was time. However, it’s one more step away from you being little & that stings a little bit for me. The look on your face when you got in was priceless. You told me that it was so much “cozier” in your seat now. We stopped by my office for a minute and you were chatting up with Jenn & Laney, taking all their stamps and having a blast. Grandma Noot met us and we went out to Longboat Key to check on a condo listing of hers. The unit has a private beach access, so we were able to play on the beach. We collected shells, had snacks & you played in the sand (even put it right in your hair!) and because no one was there, you could throw the sand in the air as much as you wanted! That definitely made your day! You started to get tired, so you asked if we could go home. You were definitely tired & when we dropped Grandma Noot off at my office, your eyes were glazed. We weren’t to the back gate of my parking lot when you fell asleep! Poor tired girl!
When you woke up, you snacked & then we showered. I never did get you to put any clothes on lol. You ate a ton of watermelon & then you didn’t want to eat the stir fry I made for dinner. We played Life & then I ran to Whole Foods. While I was gone, you tried to con Daddy into making you a grilled cheese sandwich… He didn’t buy it lol, so you finally ate some of your stir fry and MORE watermelon!!! We went to bed to do Lingos & read Seuss books. You snuggled with me, complained that my boob was in your way, then rolled over and drifted off to sleep in the middle of The Lorax. As I sat up in your bed, I leaned over and kissed your forehead. You look like an angel laying in bed. Bedtime hasn’t always been this peaceful, but it was worth the wait! It’s one of my favorite things that we do. I love you so much!!!!
