We went to the mall Sunday morning. The play area had lots of kids in it, but Adia didn't seem to mind. We wandered a bit and got ice cream. As we tried to leave the mall, Adia ran towards the door to Chili's. I asked her if she was hungry and she said, "Yes!" while trying to open the door. We ended up eating at Chili's. Adia wouldn't eat her burger or mandarin oranges, all she wanted was the grated cheese. The waitress brought us a plate of cheese and I think that's all Adia ended up eating.

Before DiDi went home on Sunday, Adia made sure they went outside and played with chalk. DiDi drew some fun pictures and Adia had a blast. She loves chalk and even asks for it by name now. Adia was very sad to see DiDi go. She's been asking for her since she left. I hear "DiDi soon?" all day long.





On Monday we went to the mall. Adia had fun being a terror. She was so hyper and we were hoping we could wear her out a big so she'd nap. It didn't work quite as planned and she certainly didn't fall asleep in the car as planned. I had to fight her into a very much needed nap and she woke up almost crankier than when she went to bed. At least it was an early night for her too.


In the morning, Adia attempted video games with Mommy and Daddy. She really wants to play, but doesn't quite understand how it works. She's good at imitating us though. While she couldn't really play, she got pretty good at irritating Daddy by constantly pressing the start button in the middle of his game. The giggles from her were priceless when she realized what she was doing.




Later in the day, Gamma and Gampa arrived. Adia enjoyed running around outside before going to lunch. She's started collecting leaves along with pine cones and rocks. The funny part is when she yells, "weaves!" She can't quite say leaves, but she knows what they are.


We went to El Torito for lunch. Adia didn't eat much, but she had fun in the booth. After lunch we headed to the mall. Adia played in the play area while Gamma, Gampa and Daddy watched. I stepped out to renew my license. Adia was happy to see me when I came back. We then wandered a little and Adia rode the ice cream truck again. It's the only ride she likes. We also tried the race car, but it scared her half to death.






Gamma and Gampa soon had to leave. Adia didn't want them to leave, but fell asleep, while screaming on me. She was way past nap time. After they left, I laid her down in bed, but she didn't sleep long enough. She was pretty cranky, but also hungry. After feeding her dinner, she perked up a little bit.

We went for a walk this morning. It was super chilly. I wrapped her in a blanket and asked her if she wanted to bring any toys with her. She picked a book. She looked at it our entire walk, but the hat didn't last.




I took a shower when we got back and then we headed to the store. She loves riding in the race car cart. She was no problem the entire trip. She even reminded me to buy string cheese. When we got home, she was begging for lunch. I was hoping she'd nap after lunch, but I didn't get my wish. She actually never napped today and wasn't very cranky at all. We had steak for dinner, which Adia loves. I guess that's what I'll have to start ordering for her at Outback when we go. Her bath was cut short, but she easily fell asleep.
