Adia was wearing her squirrel pants today and they were rather fitting for what appeared on our deck. A SQUIRREL! Adia was the one who noticed it too. DiDi was holding her in the living room when Adia did a 180, just to look at the deck. That's when DiDi noticed there was something on the deck as well. We all ended up in the kitchen, staring at the squirrel. Adia was so excited. She sat down with her hands on the glass and was careful not to make any sudden, loud movements. She even started making a noise very similar to the noise squirrel makes. That made the squirrel move even closer to the glass. Adia loved every minute of it. I threw some peanuts onto the deck to keep it around longer and after finishing those, I tried some mixed nuts. I guess he was full because he tried burring an almond under the trash can. Adia was sad to see him go, but crawled over to her toy basket and pulled out her stuffed squirrel! Certainly not what DiDi was expecting and neither was I.
I then took my shower and when I got out, Adia was eating instant oatmeal with DiDi. She was very happy to be eating big people food. She also ate some cheerios. After her little meal, she explored the living room some more. Everything was fine until she tried to get to me on the couch. She fell over the body pillow and landed in the gap between the futon mattress and the couch. She was stuck, on her head and I can't lift her. DiDi came running and rescued her. Then it was a bottle and a nap for Adia. Both of us were surprised she fell asleep since we had no idea she was that hungry or tired.
She didn't sleep long so we headed to Costco. It was my first trip out of the house since surgery and it went pretty well. It was COLD outside though and we ran into someone from the coast. Apparently there was snow in Florence today and the system is headed our way. Maybe Adia will get some snow. I can only imagine what she'd think of that. Adia got plenty of goodies at Costco, but it was all stuff she needed, diapers, wipes and a new sleeper. DiDi also got her a set of books that Adia went nuts over. We were in and out of Costco pretty quickly, which is amazing on a Saturday.
Then we made a quick stop at Safeway. Adia was out of Yobaby! That's never good since it's the one food she eats daily. She rode in the cart for part of the trip, but didn't last. She was happy to go home. She kept trying to eat my yogurt so we thought she might be hungry. She ended up eating chicken, cheerios, cranberry sauce and some bagel. DiDi couldn't feed her cranberry sauce fast enough. She liked it at Thanksgiving and I guess it hasn't changed. She was then acting tired, but when DiDi picked her up, she noticed an off smell. Adia had another blowout! It was nasty and a two person job. I got Adia laughing, but she was mad when we dressed her. She definitely prefers being naked, but her mommy was the same way as a child. The funniest part of the whole diaper change was Adia still trying to drink her bottle while DiDi tried to clean her off. She did abandon the bottle though. After DiDi read her a book and fed her, she did fall asleep. DiDi was even able to lay her down in her crib.
Adia woke up right after Scott got home. She was crying in her crib and it was heartbreaking. Scott rescued her, but she was looking for DiDi. She played for a little bit, but then it was dinnertime. She ate yogurt, cheese and cheerios. Mostly she just made a mess. She wasn't too hungry after everything she ate earlier and preferred being the center of attention. She got yogurt everywhere when she grabbed the spoon. She was completely sticky and shared it with me. She even got it in her hair so a hair washing was needed.
Bath time was fun. She was in a really good mood. Mostly she just wanted to eat the washcloth, but played with her cups too. When it came time to wash her hair, Scott called in DiDi. He did it yesterday, but she hates getting her hair washed. Her new favorite toy in the tub us the lever you pull to drain the water. I always get worried when she grabs it because it's right under the faucet. We used to use the duckie faucet cover, but the faucet looks like it's barely attached to the wall. We don't want to risk pulling the faucet out of the wall so the faucet cover remains as a toy. After getting her hair washed, Scott took her. Adia was happy until it was time to dress her. Then she bonked her head on the counter and started screaming. DiDi took her and brought her to the living room. Once in the living room, she was happy again.

Grand High Priestess of the Duckie, according to Scott
Now she's playing with a toy she hasn't seen in several weeks. It goes with her high chair, but it's been a long time before she's needed it. Now she can have fun with it in the living room. She loves it. Hopefully she'll go to bed easily tonight. 11 was a little late last night, but she did sleep well. I also hope there are no more poopies. Her butt is looking very sore and red, despite frequent applications of desitin.
