Betsy and I went to the Park almost every day last week--on Wednesday it was too humid and nasty--and I think she's starting to really like it.
On Tuesday we had our last Busy Babies class. In the afternoon B had an appointment with Dr. Warren. It was not fun. She had her new cast put on and the saw scared her to death as did the removal of the pin with what looked like pliers. Ouch--she was hysterical and I almost was. She got a new pink cast and after a rough couple of hours she crashed.
On Wednesday we had morning PJs with Aunt Attie then hit Target later in the afternoon.
On Thursday we had to go see Dr. Warren again b/c her cast seemed to have shifted. B screamed for the 45 minutes we had to wait--it was her usual nap time and she was mad to be back at the dr's office so soon. Once in there her cast was yanked off and she freaked out although we were assured by the nurse that it didn't hurt. Yeah, right. We got a new cast (cast #3) that goes over her knee. I was afraid that it would slow her down, but in the afternoon we went to playgroup at Evelyn/Georgia's house and she scooted all over the place. We had so much fun and I had 2 iced coffees so I was bouncing off the walls. Afterwards we went to TCBY with Andrea & William. Thursday night P and I watched "the shows" and The Office seriously made me cry; I know I'm lame.
On Friday we had an awesome day with Marme. We went to lunch at NY Bagel and B ate some whole wheat bagel and loved it. Later we went to the Riverwalk and I got some much needed new clothes then we sat outside of the Riverwalk Cafe du Monde and ate beignets and watched the boats on the river. It was so beautiful and relaxing. B tasted her first beignet and was in heaven! We met Papa Vic and Bee at the Park and fed the ducks. B drank water out of a cup and did a pretty good job. We also spotted Chris Rose and had seen Alec Gifford at Dr. Warren's office on Thursday--local celeb bonanza!!! On Friday night Betsy clapped her hands! It was about 9:00 and she would not go to sleep and was wide awake and smiley and in the best mood and all of a sudden started laughing and clapping her hands. It was adorable.
On Saturday morning we went to PJ's with Attie, Beau, & Coco. Later on in the day Attie was playing with B and she said "Dadadadadadada." We quickly grabbed Peter and she kept saying and continued to say it all day Sunday too. It's the cutest thing ever. On Saturday afternoon we traveled to Baton Rouge--B's first overnight trip. We stayed with the Stones and Neila's Mom and sister were kind enough to watch B while we went to a party. B was fascinated with Camille. On Sunday morning I woke up with B and Cal woke up with Camille and B stared at Camille and laughed and tried to get her attention. We had breakfast at Whole Foods; it was so beautiful outside yet again. After leaving BR we went to the outlets then home. Aunt Katie came to visit then we went to her house and played with Lola. We had to lower B's bed all the way b/c she is getting so active.
Yesterday we went to the Park then to Wal-Mart--B's first trip there with me--not as bad as I thought it would be. B was all over the place yesterdayThis morning we went to see Dr. Warren and he put a wooden splint. She only cried a little bit. I think she's over her cast and the constant dr. visits. We go back in 2 weeks then 2 weeks later it should be off--just in time for the beach!!! We tried to go to Storytime at Latter Library with Ticia/William and Evelyn/Georgia, but it was canceled b/c the storyteller was bitten by an insect and became ill. So we all went to PJ's on Maple then we went with Ticia & William to Daneel Park. Betsy got in a swing for the first time and had a blast--I forgot my camera so no pics. :(
B is trying all sorts of new foods--avocado, plain yogurt, cheerios. It's so cool to see her reactions to everything.
