What a difference a week has made! Last week, Mia went to sleep without a hitch - right down for the night at 7pm. The last few days have been quite the challenge. She stayed up till 9:20pm on Friday night (super late for her). Unfortunately we've had to let her cry it out. Last night she only cried for 5 mins. It's just something how quick their phases change overnight. Hopefully she will be back to her going to sleep without a problem phase again soon!
We had a very nice weekend. Friday Mia and I made a chocolate cake for dad's 31st birthday and ordered pizza! Mia bought dad a child carrier hiking backpack! Dad loved it and tried all weekend to get Mia to sit in it...she ended up using it as a new 'bin' to put her various toys inside! I think once we take it outdoors she will enjoy it - I know it took her awhile to adjust to the bjorn and even her stroller.
Saturday we went to our FAVORITE local Italian restaurant in Frankfort. Mia did great, a little meltdown in between dinner but enjoyed eating a scoop of vanilla gelato! She even used the spoon a bit but then resorted to her finger - her little hand turned red from the cold!
Sunday we headed out to the Lighthouse Outlets and Mom got to splurge a bit at J Crew, dad bought some new shoes and Mia got a ton of cute outfits from Gymboree! We came home and took a nice long walk with the beagles then grilled out steaks for dinner. Then dad went to DQ to get mommy a blizzard - yum!
We didn't get to plant this weekend as our annual mom's day tradition because mommy's real gift is coming later this week- a landscaper to do some work on our flower beds! When they are done we will plant our annuals!
