I woke up in Dow with Mom greeting me in my crib. Grandma Droste got up pretty quickly thereafter and we all played. I spent the morning playing with them and Aunt Sarah (and I started yet another new food: chicken!).
The big news today was that Aunt Claire was arriving back from her semester in India! We all rode over to the airport together in the biggest car I’ve ever seen! We hung out in baggage claim and I mostly got to play with Aunt Sarah while everyone else went to Starbucks or did other things to keep themselves busy. I even made a friend, Isabelle, who seemed about twice my age.
Finally A/C made her way out of the concourse and I was so happy to see her! It was so cool to see her smile “so big” to see me, too! Of course, everyone made me show A/C all my new “tricks” like pat-a-cake and walking. We bonded and reconnected and it’s like she never even left!
We stopped by Whole Foods and then had dinner at The Cheesecake Factory. I think the highlight was that I spilled a huge glass of ice water all over Dad. After dinner I walked around the vestibule at the mall and witnessed the Christmas shopping madness for myself…before falling asleep on the ride home to Grandma’s & Grandpa’s.
