Weekend with our family!

This weekend was the first weekend that we were able to spend the entire weekend in Birmingham, without anything to do, in 2 months. It was very relaxing and I will tell you all about it! Friday, was Mama/Anne Harman day all day long! We had so much fun and it was a day that I will always remember (or at least will enjoy reading about later!) We started off the day visiting the people that she works with. Miss Holly, Miss Becky, Miss Jill, Miss Anne, Miss Joan, and Miss Jessica just think that I am so cute! They played with me and I felt like such a big girl being Mama's helper! I even typed an I love you message on the computer all by myself! See, this is what I typed..."G cxx cvc v cvchv v cv chh fgt erre4 e54v c453evc 34c f3fdtd4 vkk bvbnjcfyugjk kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk" Miss Jill had cookies and she shared one with Mama and me. I know I love chocolate chip cookie now! Then I went to New Beacon Hospice to visit Mimi. She was out of the office so I called her on the phone and told her that I had surprised her with a visit. She promptly turned around and came straight back. When she arrived at her office, she found me sitting at her desk writing with a pen (actually, I was chewing on it but we can pretend.) She had toys for me to play with...so prepared! Everyone there was so nice to me. They kept coming by to see me and it made me feel very special. I think that they might hire me to be the assistant director of bereavement since I make everyone smile!The next morning when Mama and Dada came in to wake me this is what they saw! Just my two big bright brown eyes popping over the side of the crib. Thank goodness they lowered the crib! I am a big climber! I am growing up so fast!That afternoon, I took all of the toys out of my toy basket and what did I find?!?!? Another toy! I love playing with the big blue basket! I was so proud of myself for being creative. I thought I was so funny! Again, I do not know why my parents buy me toys when I like playing with everyday things!

Next weekend, Mama is going to Tantie Erin's Bachelorette party and so this weekend was full of preparation. I wanted to help so I chewed on the ribbon while she wrapped the weekend favors. I am such a good helper!

I used shampoo for the first time and Mama thought it would be funny to put my hair in a Mohawk! I love bath time!

This weekend, I also learned that I can pick out my own toys from the basket instead of my parents handing them to me. I especially enjoy choosing books from them to read to me!

Then it was bedtime and since it was Saturday night, I decided that I wanted to stay up for a while with Mama and Dada. Dada let me look outside the window at the rain and Mama let me touch the rain. I was a little confused to see the water falling from the sky. They let me stay up until 8:00 and then I went to bed with no problems. I just wanted a little extra time with them!Sunday, we got up and went to church. I looked so pretty in the Kelly Kids dress that Nana and Pops bought for me! Mama and Dada think that it may be time for me to go to the nursery during Church now. I was good compared to to her children but was still a little distracting because I was making happy baby noises. Everyone around me thought it was cute though! I think that I will like the church nursery so that I can play with all of the other children! I like to make new friends.

After church, we went to The Village Tavern at the Summit! Dada likes to support his company! There, I ate real squash for the first time! I loved every bite but Mama did find some in my lap that I was trying to save for later. I really like going to restaurants so that I can sit at the big girl table and eat with Mama and Dada.
My sister, Gretchen was feeling left out since I have a blog so Mama added her to mine. This is her snuggling on the couch! She loves to snuggle! She is a great sister!
