Dad was in Vegas this weekend on his annual trip with his childhood friends, so Mom and I had the house to ourselves all weekend. I got up really early Saturday morning (5:30!) and wouldn’t go back to sleep in my crib. Mom made an exception to the rules and let me sleep with her so we could both get some extra sleep. We finally got up around 7:00.
We went downstairs and cooked an egg (which I don’t get to do too often with Mom!) and atr breakfast. Then we went to Whole Foods (skipping Dominick’s and Stanley’s!) before meeting my friends Thomas and Keira (and Mom’s friend Heidi) at Welles Park. We went to the Old Town School of Music to see Laura Doherty in concert. There was a giant pickle and fun songs. Thomas and I shared O’s. Then we all went to lunch at Potbelly’s and I had a PBJ. Yum!
I refused to nap, crying for 45 minutes when Mom put me down at 1:30. So, Mom made another exception and let me nap with her. Things sure are different when Dad’s not around! We had an uneventful evening, including some laundry, and I went to bed at 7:15.
I slept for over 11 hours and got up at 6:30. We cooked an egg and did some more laundry. I was excited to see Coach Nicki at soccer practice, which was outside for the last time this season. I was pretty good at the running drils, only okay at the kicking drills and I refused to sit on the parachute (but I was willing to run under it):
After practice we played at the park before coming home for lunch. I ate Nana’s green beans and peas adn then took a nap. When I got up, Rachel was here and we went to the park for two more hours and I even got to bring home leaves! I helped Mom cook until she sliced her finger.
After dinner, I got to see Grandma and Grandpa Droste on our webcam, which was fun. I had a bath, read books, and got to sleep very late (8:15).
Last year it was really cold!
