16 Weeks

Hello My Sweet Girl,
What a great week we've had! It has been go go go too! We're all a little worn out!
On Friday I had a meeting after work so I decided to come get you early and bring you to the office. Fridays are a little more relaxed and a lot of times it's cool if we bring our dogs in so I thought hey, why not!?
You visited with everyone and then got tired so I sat you on my desk and boom, you were out! That's the world's cutest paperweight right there!

Saturday we attended to wedding of our good friends Lauren & Mitch. I was a little nervous because it was a Catholic wedding in a very old and beautiful church and not the most conducive location for a crying baby. You were an angel throughout the entire ceremony! You didn't make a peep! I was so very proud of you! Then off to the reception we went where you proceeded to sleep while we ate (thanks for that) and then woke up just in time to visit a little bit and send them off with bubbles! Congratulations to them both! We are so happy to see them so happy!

 

And we didn't stop there! After that we went to Averie's dance recital, again a little nervous because I wasn't sure how loud it would be, how you would handle the cheering and clapping, if you'd sit still long enough to watch A's dances and well once again you were an angel! It was so precious to see you so captivated by the stage! You couldn't take your eyes off of it until you decided to take a quick little cat nap! Congratulations Averie! We are so impressed by your fine dancing skills! We can't wait to see many more of your performances! 

Now Sunday was a completely different story. You were worn out but decided to fight your naps all day long! We had plans to go to Ms. Cheryl's house to go swimming for CC's birthday and our early plans were rained out but once the clouds broke and the sun came out, off we went. At first you were having fun but for some reason the laughing and cackles while we played "Headbandz" did not amuse you! (Stupid Ronald McDonald!) The water was too cold to brave just yet.We bailed on the next part of the party to get you home and in bed! You fought me but I finally prevailed and off to a good's night rests you went! I didn't even get a chance to take a photo!

Monday after school I dragged you to the grocery store and I thought for sure you were going to let me have it but you (once again) just chilled out and went with the flow!! Thank you my love!

Daddy watched you on Tuesday night because I had another meeting and you two had a blast together while I was away! It warms my heart to see you two together and having fun!

Then today was the very first day you've actually gotten in the pool all the way and did some swimming! Oh my little fishy you are going to be a water baby for sure! You just had a blast floating around in your little raft! Averie and Ian came along and you loved watching them play! I promise many more night in the cool water taking refuge from the hot nights!

Oh those Summer Nights! How your daddy and I love them so! It's our favorite time of the year!

Love, love, love you!
Mommy
