I decided I should chill just a bit, and be more relaxed about things than I normally am. Its fun to just be spontaneous some days. After S got up from her nap on Tuesday I thought sprinklers and Popsicles would be fun. What better way to clean up a popsicle mess than sprinklers outside.
I love how she's trying to drink the water.
What happens when you ask for a happy face.
She's serious about that popsicle.
My idea about how to clean her didn't go as well as I'd planned. See that dribble hanging off her thumb and how little popsicle she had eaten...that should give you an idea of what her body looked like when she finished...and she didn't want to get in the sprinklers again :) So, off we went to the tub :)
This is a newer love of hers. She specifically asks for it...it comes out sounding more like "eyesss". And she eats it a lot!
We were also able to see S's birthmom this week. We got some great pictures of them reading together and just enjoying each other.
Reading "We're Going on a Bear Hunt"
Playing with a magna-doodle.
This week we also celebrated S's "Gotcha Day"... in the adoption world it's the day of finalization where everything is legal and complete. We are celebrating it as the sealing day, which is officially today. We made her a special breakfast to start the day off.
Pancakes made in different shapes....a special dog one for S with raspberries, strawberries, and bananas. She also had chocolate milk which she loved!
We slowly did a few gifts throughout the day then had family come over in the late afternoon to play and have dinner. I would say it was a success!
Brett was so excited to give S this toy he made years ago when he was making them for his nieces and nephews as well.
A fun toy she got when she was born that she's now old enough for.
Cousins playing in the water.
A picture of the 4 cousins big enough to sit still long enough for a shot...we had 2 more here.
Trying out her new bike.
LOVING the new balloon nana and papa brought for her.
