The day started with me being very impatient, what a bad start to the day! Eventually the impatience was gone and I was reading over and over and over to Lydibug, made lunch and cleaned it. During her nap I got to relax.
After her nap and a snack we went to run some errands. First to the gas station, second to the pharmacy for my birth control, And third we went to the Library and got a library card, but not only that we got books!
It was Lydibugs first time at the Library and she L O V E D it!! Although she was very loud and didn't understand that she needed to be quite. I am so excited to start a habit of going to the Library with my little companion. When we finished at the Library I made a last min decision to go and visit Mitch at work... which means we have to order a meal. Lydibug really enjoyed visiting dad she spent the whole time smiling at him and pointing at him saying "dad", Mitch was happy to see us and kept making faces at Lydibug.
To end our errands we went to the park and played for quite some time. My little girl was in heaven and it made me so happy.
We ended the evening with dinner and some Elmo, then it was off to bed. I felt so accomplished and like a great mother!!!
Hey speaking of bed. Lydibugs been doing great this past week at going to bed and taking naps, she hasn't been crying. Our routine goes like this. Snack before bed, brush teeth, jammies, scriptures, prayer, then Mitch takes her out on the deck and they say goodnight to the world, bedtime story, she turns her music on, she turns the light out, and she shuts the door. We then cuddle for the first song and then it's into bed. By the end of the second song I'm out of the room.
Oh P.S. before I end this post I just had to share some more mommy favorite moments. Today while I worked out Lydibug watched Elmo and then we read some books together! I then gave her a bath and at theend while the tub was draining she pooped in the tub!! GAH!! We got through it and lived. WE LIVED.
Every mother who instills a love for reading in their little ones will be grateful of the effort!! You are an excellent mother! One meant just for the type of personality Lydia brings to your home. She has that little mischievous streak that comes from both her mommy and daddy!
