Today's main event was Madeline's first ever birthday party, for my coworker Meredith's now one-year-old son James. Madeline was ready!
She had fun playing with James, Lena (coworker Angie's daughter), and other little ones. And she got to try some cake! After a few hours, though, the babies were all overstimulated and ready to nap, so we all said our goodbyes.
We proceeded to the grocery store. Between me and Summer, we took three trips into the store as Madeline slept in the back (the second and third were for each of us to pick out a pumpkin).
When Madeline woke up, she was happy!
At home, Madeline and I crawled around. She mostly chased Petey back and forth but also stopped occasionally to pull herself up on a wall or some drawers.
Then came dinner, and then bedtime. While getting Madeline ready for bed, I paused to nibble on her toes. She thought that was pretty funny.
Now she's asleep, and there's snow accumulating outside -- very strange.
Wow...two parties in one week and sugar! Oh, boy..now she knows what really tastes good - altho' since she likes pickles she might not be a sugar "freak". That little girl is going to be off and running before you know it. You can see how she wants to stop this slow crawly stuff and just "get on with it". Hope the cold is gone as airplane rides are no fun when you are all stuffed up. Love to You All and hope your trip is full of fun...xoxoxo N
