You slept like a rock in your bed last night and woke up with dry night pants for the 3rd day in a row. We got dressed and ready earlier than expected, so we stopped for a quick bagel before heading to the Italian Consulate. In the car on the way there you said “Coffee is like when you are exhausted and you need to wake up” because you were worried Daddy might not get a coffee. Although the tropical storm wasn’t bad at all, all the Starbucks and donut shops were closed.
When we arrived at the Consulate, you were excited to be there. You played quietly and sat with Daddy while I was working with the Deputy. Because of the storm, the person who needed to finalize our marriage license, which allows them to register your birth in Italy, wasn’t there, so they have to mail your passport as soon as that is complete. I did receive mine and you wanted to hold it, look at it and carry it around. I was so happy to get it and when I finally had it in my hand, it made me tear up. I have waited 5 years for this day and I’m so grateful to pass Italian Citizenship on to you. I hope you love this beautiful country and appreciate your citizenship as much as I do.
Girl on a passport mission! 
Afraid to get wet 
You crack me up with crossed legs! 
Passport Success!! 
We headed back to hotel to pack up and hit the road back home since we couldn’t enjoy the pool. The drive was easy and not too much rain. We stopped in Naples for lunch. You never did nap which surprised me. We played lots of games and you quizzed us about words that started with letters you picked.
As soon as we got home, Grandma Noot asked if she could show our house at 6:30p so we unpacked quick and watched Lion Guard, so we weren’t tempted to tear up the toy room lol! We took Harry and went to Hob Nob for dinner since he needed to be out of the house too. You were grumpy at dinner and didn’t eat much. We had to stop at the office to grab groceries, which I accidentally had delivered there. Romo was still working and you were excited to show her that Harry was with us.
On the way home you were trying to fall asleep. I didn’t realize HOW tired you were. We went straight to bed and you were completely zonked out by 8:15p. You were a champ this weekend….really the last two weeks.
I love you so much!
