This little beauty has had her mommy and daddy to herself for three days now. It has been so fun (and pretty relaxing for me) to get to spend a little one on one time with Blair. It isn't often that we get to do this with the kids, but we try to give them all "up close and personal" time with us as often as we can.
Saturday we took her downtown for dinner and ice cream. In between the two, we stopped outside of the Tennessee Aquarium and let her play in the water fountains that they have. There were tons of other parents with the same idea. We hit up Ben & Jerry's for our ice cream and let Blair pick a candy topping. She chose mini M&Ms and she basically dug each one out of the ice cream with her fingers and only ate the candy. Oh well, that's what a date night is for... getting to do what you want.
Sunday we had a cookout with my mom and brother. Blair spent the day in her kiddie pool while snacking on a banana popscicle. I thought the sun and water would tucker her out, but she fought me really well at nap time. We finally got a late one in and then were able to stay up a little later than usually to let her see a few fireworks. She really loved them and afterwards she had me looking up videos of fireworks on my phone for her to watch.
We let her cuddle up with us and spend the night in our bed; something she hasn't done in over a year. It was a really great weekend and we are looking forward to spending the day togather again today.
Happy 4th everyone!
