This morning, you finally woke up around 9:15a (your new favorite time lol).
It was super rainy all over the state so I decided to skip Legoland. We were meeting Lisa and Lucy Wallace so Lisa suggested we go to Great Explorations in St Pete instead. We did and it was so much fun. On the way there you were singing some made up Christmas Carols lol.
You enjoyed yourself and played so hard. You and Lucy played separately with your Moms for a little while, then you guys dumped us and ran off together. You two haven’t spent time together consistently and Lucy is a little shy, but you guys warmed up to each other nicely! I couldn’t believe you climbed to the top of the climbing structure right away – no fear at all!! It was so high!! There was a Publix store set up where you shopped and went through the check out. There was a beach, a medical exam area with a huge Operation game & X ray film reader, Vet clinic, Fire Station with real hose, pole, truck and fire jacket & pants. There was a wood fired oven where you could make pretend pizzas, Lego area, craft area and hurricane simulator. You gave a news cast where you could see yourself on TV which you were fascinated by. This was such a cool place. We haven’t been to anything like this since Portland in 2018! I’m so glad we found this!
We stopped next door at Carrabba’s for lunch. You insisted on ordering the same lunch as Lucy! The rain was coming hard, so they headed home after lunch. We stopped at Mazzaro’s Italian market just to have a look around. You chose a few desserts and we hit the road home. You were looking tired in the car. When we got home, you asked me to snuggle with you on the couch. I would NEVER pass that up!!!! I made dinner and Marcela stopped by. She brought you a cute purple purse and some silly socks for your first day of school!!
I thought after the day you had today you would pass out early, but that was wrong!! It was close to 10 when you finally fell asleep but you were happy to get to sleep in my room!!
I love you so much!
