Surprisingly, you were up early for gymnastics even though we went to bed so late. Daddy went golfing so we were going to meet him later. You chose PB&J for breakfast instead of eggs, which you thought was hilarious. On the way to the gym, you called Grandma Weezie. She invited us over to swim after class.
You did great at the gym. There was a new boy, Grayson, who you welcomed and showed what to do. We had to stop at a client’s house on the way home to get a document signed. We had a little time to kill before heading there, so we went to get donuts. You jumped out of the car, talking on your toy phone, and had your purse full of toys, in case you needed them lol.
On the way to the client’s house, you told me “I’m a beautiful girl because I’m a big kid.” You also told me “you can call me baby girl, but not baby baby!”
You were chatting the clients up and you were very well mannered. We left, ran home to grab swim suits, then meet Grandma Weezie at her pool. You insisted on wearing your new smiley face swimsuit. You swam hard in your mermaid flipper & you brought your glitter noodles. We only stayed about an hour & a half, then we stopped home to change into dry clothes.
You were hungry & Daddy had just laid down to take a nap after golf, so I took you to lunch at Brio. You very politely asked the host for “a table for two please” and when the server come over you ordered your lunch “may I please have a milk to drink and grilled cheese and oranges and strawberries!” You were an angel at lunch.
On the way home from lunch you looked droopy. You have been begging to go get “your microphone” at TJ Maxx (you call it PJ Mask) since the last time we were there and I didn’t let you get it that night. I told you that you had to earn it and you certainly have. It has been a good currency for the last week or so. Every time we had to talk about something, I reminded you to make a good choice if you wanted to earn your microphone! So, I told you to close your eyes because we had a long drive to get to PJ Mask lol (it is actually across the street) but I knew you needed to nap and if you had that microphone we had no shot! You did fall asleep & I picked up Daddy so we could run errands while you napped.
We went by the lot & Paul & Peggy were out, so Daddy went in to visit with them. A few minutes later you woke up, so we went in too. You loved petting her cats & then she offered you a snack. You excitedly told her, “You know what the two best things are with apples??? Peanut Butter & Honnnnneeeeyyyyyyy!!” You bellied right up to the bar with an apple, peanut butter & honey. Then you wanted to explore her house. You made your way downstairs and wanted to put your feet in the pool. You were then wanting to get out because you heard thunder and you didn’t want to get wet. However, two minutes later you were naked and swimming all over! We were getting ready to leave (it was almost 6p, they were ready for dinner & I needed to get something together for dinner) and we walked through their home gym. You were lifting weights, jumping to hit the speedbag and slamming the battle ropes! It was hilarious.
On the way home, the discussion about the microphone resumed. Daddy wanted to pick up a pizza, so I told you we would take a bath, eat pizza then go. You said, well mama, what if instead we take a bath, eat our pizza, then get my microphone?!?! I was like, that’s cool – it’s the exact same plan!! lol. That’s exactly what we did. You were super happy to get that microphone. You sang all through Whole Foods with it too.
When we got home, you showed it to Daddy & were so proud to have it. You were looking very forward to making popping corn and watching a movie. Daddy found a new Peanuts movie that we hadn’t seen so we watched that. It was really funny and you were laughing so hard. You were sitting right next to me on the couch and I had my arm around you the whole time. It was the perfect night. When it was over, I took you to bed. We read 4 books & I was starting to get sleepy during the last one. You kept tapping my shoulder & I would read that page. I slept with you allllll night!
I love you so much!
