Unusual for a Saturday, when I woke up I was greeted by Mom rather than Dad. She was up to IM with Aunt Claire and so Dad slept in for a bit and just joined in at the end. After chatting with A/C, Mom got in the shower and Dad fed me breakfast (rice cereal & prunes).
Dad went for a run and Mom and I took off for a walk (well, Mom was on a mission to buy a wedding shower gift). Dad met us while we were out and we amused each other while Mom shopped. The three of us went to Janik’s Cafe — a cute little restaurant that we’ve never been to before, despite its being one of the closest food establishments to our house. I made faces at the cute little 2-year-old girl at the table next to us while Mom & Dad ate lunch.
Mom’s party was over an hour drive away and there was some talk that Dad and I would go out to Barrington with her and amuse ourselves while she partied. They decided against that and Dad and I hung out together all afternoon. We went down to the office where I played with my toys and then headed back upstairs where I ate and then took a nap.
Eventually Mom got back and home and after she fed me my zucchini dinner the three of us went to Dominick’s. I can’t remember the last time all three of us went grocery shopping! It was so fun. Dad was being really really silly, which made me laugh and even made Mom chuckle a little bit.
Bathtime is even getting more fun, as Mom is letting me sit up and play after I am all clean. Soon I’ll be able to take my entire bath sitting up (or so I’ve overheard).
