On Saturday morning I took Maddie for her very first story time at a new bookstore that opened up right around the corner. It didn't go as well as I hoped as our little 17th month old did not want to sit still! She said "No" and "All done" while the first story was being read. I eventually bribed her with Cheez-Its and she in my lap long enough to listen to Baby Beluga. It wasn't just story time - the reader also had crafts for us to do! We glued a whale onto a sheet of blue paper and then colored a picture of a ninja. Maddie "took off" a few times and ran around the store and luckily the patrons at the store all smiled as she ran by. Afterwards we went to the park so Maddie could burn off some energy!
After her nap, I took her to a different park. She loved running up and down this hill!
On Sunday we had our normal morning routine of breakfast and just hanging out. After Maddie's nap, we had a yummy taco lunch courtesy of Dad, and then we took her to a different park from the ones on Saturday. We are very lucky to have so many parks within a short distance! After the park, we went to get ice cream!!! Maddie sat very still enjoying her spoonfuls of ice cream and watching CNN on the television above us.
We ended the weekend with much needed bath!
