Weekend of Firsts!!!

Well, this was a very eventful weekend where I did so many things for the first time! To begin, I ate my first Oreo cookie and loved every bite. Of course, I still do not have any teeth so I slobbered on it until it was soggy an then I was able to eat it. I hope that mom gives me another one soon but she said that I could only have it while on vacation. I wish that everyday was vacation!Next, I sat on the beach for the first time. I did not much care for the sand so I sat in the baby pool that Nana and Pops found for me on the beach. I played in it for about an hour and then it was time for a change of scenery. Mom took me to the gulf while everyone watched (I had an audience watching everything I did this weekend...I have everyone wrapped!) and let me feel the water on my feet but the waves were pretty rough and it scared me a little. There were lots of Jelly Fish so mom and dad would not let me get too far in.
My favorite part of the weekend was when I was in the pool! I laughed and smiled and loved every minute! Mimi bought me something that I could sit in and I thought that I was hot stuff!! I would kick my legs and make splashes with my arms. I would only splash with one arm at a time though. I wish that mom had remembered my sun glasses because my eyes are super sensitive to the sun.
At the end of the day, it was time for my first big girl bath! I felt so grown up and did not want to get out. When I saw the drain, I was not interested in anything else. Nana and Mimi said that I would hold a cup under the water and then bring the cup up to my mouth like I was trying to drink it. I hope that mom and dad will start giving me a big girl bath at home. Of course, I may not give them a choice since I love to splash so much now. So much for mom and dad's backs.
On the way home from the beach, we stopped at Uncle James's KFC in Thomasville where I took lots of pictures for him and Melissa. I think that I should be the new poster child for KFC because I look so cute with the cups!
We then stopped in Tuscaloosa to pick up my sister, Gretchen, and mom decided that I needed to go to the doctor because it looked like I had pink eye. The doctor prescribed me some eye drops that I do not like very much and it makes me cry. Because I am sick, I get to stay in Tuscaloosa at Nana and Pops house for the next couple of days. I know that they will give me lots of love.
This was the best weekend! I had Nana, Pops, Mimi, Grandpa, Dad and Mom all watching everything I did and it made me feel so special. I loved being the center of attention! The people at daycare will definitely be able to tell that I have been spoiled this weekend but that is what happens when you have such wonderful parents and grandparents.
