Here is a re-cap of our weekend....
Friday night we went for a fun dinner just the three of us to Perkins. Iyla did fairly well but was not a huge fan of the pancakes we ordered her. She was WAY more interested in everyone else in the restaurant and watching what they were up to instead.
Saturday morning we stayed around the house and Iyla did some SERIOUS playing with her toys. We grabbed a quick bite of lunch and did a little shopping.
Later that day, we were joined by Grandma Lori and Grandpa Marty for a fun trip to the playground. We were amazed at all she could do-- the climbing and toddling around the various playground equipment. Here were some pictures of Iyla exploring the playground:
She is still NOT sure of the slide-- doesn't hate it but-- doesn't really love it either!
Saturday evening we went for dinner at a local, family-owned restaurant and we had a GREAT time!! Iyla loves playing with her grandparents at the table and they spoiled her with all the attention and new foods they offered her to try.
Sunday it was off to the Children's Museum for another round of 'Exhaust the baby so maybe she will nap'. Well, this time it WORKED!!! Iyla had the greatest time in the infant section and approached the place like an ol' pro. She tried several things that she overlooked during our last visit. A big hit was the grocery cart that she could wheel herself and the cash register that had a drawer that opened. She also got absolutely SOAKED at the water table-- next time we are bringing her a change of clothes!!
Later it was time for lunch and Mom and Marty departed for home afterwards. When we got home, Iyla napped for 2.5 hours-- the longest EVER and we even had to wake her for dinner and errands!!!
Monday we were off work for President's Day so, we spent the days at various appointments and ended the weekend on a productive note!!
We had a great weekend and can hardly believe that next weekend we will be in sunny FLORIDA!!! Palm trees and warm weather here we come!
