7/5/20 – Daddy! Get Up!


I woke up before you and Daddy & I was working on my laptop in the living room. When you woke up, you immediately woke Daddy up saying ‘get up Daddy! Get up! The fireworks are still going!” He said, where’s Mommy? You said, she’s gone. She went to the store to get some food for us!”

When you came into the living room you were surprised I was on the couch and said “oh hi Mama! I thought you were at the store!” I was hoping you would get up earlier so we could go to Katrina’s to take the 4th of July picnic pictures before it got too hot, but you slept until after 9am! I made breakfast then we headed over there.

At first you were not super cooperative, which is really unusual. You are typically a good listener and you love photo shoots. But it was hot and although we just ate breakfast before we left, you claimed to be hungry. You ate a chia seed bar in the car on the way there and ate strawberries and bananas after we took the pictures! I have no idea where you put it all! You played nicely and had lots of fun with Kingston in his toy room. He has lots of Toy Story toys so you were excited about that. You brought out a karaoke machine and were singing Happy Birthday Jaxson.

On the way home, you fell asleep in the car. I tried to bring you in the house to sleep, but as soon as I laid you on the bed you were back in action. We ate a late lunch then went to Home Goods & Whole Foods. You wanted a PJ Mask watch that is identical to you Paw Patrol watch. I kept trying to talk you into something else, but you were willing to put back everything else you picked just to get the watch! I figured if you want it that bad, we would get it! lol.

Chrissy and Baby Olivia came over to play and have dinner. You are so cute interacting with her. You are getting better about sharing with her and not just taking whatever she’s playing with. You want to show her how to do it “right” because you just don’t quite appreciate that she doesn’t understand yet.

When they left I ran to Target & you stayed home to play with Daddy. When I got home, I took you straight to bed. I thought you would fall asleep early because you were tired and didn’t nap, but that didn’t seem to slow you down lol. It was around 10p when you fell asleep.

I love you so much!!!
