Happy Birthday, Nana & Happy St. Patrick’s Day everyone else!
I woke up at 6:15 but Grandma Droste let me babble for a while and after 20 minutes, I managed to talk myself back to sleep! I woke up for good at 6:50 and Grandma was there to get me up and dressed. We read stories in my room before heading downstairs for breakfast.
I ate all of my breakfast (including the strawberry oatmeal I rejected yesterday) and then we sat on the front steps and counted all of the doggies that walked by — there were nine of them! We also looked up and watched the birds in the tree over our heads.
I talked to myself for about half an hour before falling asleep for my nap. I got up a bit earlier than I might have otherwise because I needed a new diaper. Grandma and I sang songs and played until lunch time.
After lunch, we made a dash for the park to celebrate the 73 degree weather! I was fascinated by all the chaos of the park. Last year at this time I was just a week old and hardly ever left the house. It’s amazing how much difference a year makes.
I loved the swing and the teeny-tiny slide, but the teeter-totter was a bit much for me. Grandma had thought to pack my afternoon snack with us, so we had a picnic in the park. It was almost a bummer to have to head home for my nap! But apparently I needed it — I slept for over 2 hours!
Dinner was yummy and then we practiced walking across the living room about 20 times! Grandma let me splash quite a bit in the bath and I got to bed a bit later than usual — about 7:50.
