Mischief and Mayhem Always Follow Trouble

We stayed in Florence until Wednesday. Scott and I stayed at the casino by ourselves while Adia stayed with DiDi and Tanae. She wasn't so happy to have us leave her the second time. DiDi said she cried for a long time until Tanae gave her a big hug, told her it was ok and patted her back. After that she was pretty much ok. She woke up once in the night, crying mama, but because DiDi never spoke, she didn't know DiDi wasn't me. DiDi's sneaky like that.

On Wednesday we went to the park with all four girls. Heather had stopped by to pick up Tanae and we wanted to take her to the park first. Adia was a little overwhelmed by so many kids, but was happy to still have Tanae. Adia is getting so much better at going down the slide by herself. I think she's really starting to actually enjoy it.




When we got back to DiDi's house, Scott, Adia and I went out to Gamma and Gampa's house. Adia was asleep when we got there, but Gamma was very happy to hold a sleeping baby. When Adia finally woke up, she was very happy to see her grandparents. She immediately climbed in the tub for Gampa to push her around. Gampa tried, but he woke up with a hurting back.

We went out to dinner and Adia wasn't happy to leave Gampa at home. He was starting to get really sick and wasn't up to joining us. When we left, Adia said, "Bye Grampa." It was so sweet. She was also blowing him kisses.

Adia started to lose it in the restaurant. After Scott finished eating, she let me hold her and we managed to get her to finish eating too. She loved her french fries and used a fork to eat her burger. Adia loved ice cream so I thought we should go get ice cream in Old Town. Adia didn't want to sit in my lap, but she did want to sit in DiDi's lap. She happily ate her chocolate chip ice cream with a little help from both grandmas. She even used a napkin to wipe her face after Scott commented that she had ice cream on it.




Afterwards I wanted to get another family picture by the anchor. It was way too windy out and Adia wasn't in the mood to cooperate at all. She did like the underwater mural though.


We're now back in Eugene. We went grocery shopping and to the mall yesterday. I bought a baby shampoo that's supposed to help with Adia's bad cradle cap. I hope it works because her entire scalp is covered in yellow crusty patches. She spent this morning with Scott while I tried to get some extra sleep because I'm sick. I'm now wondering if Adia's getting sick too because in the middle of playing, she laid down and fell asleep. I moved her to her bed and she's still asleep. That's very un-Adia like behavior. She did just eat lunch and drank milk.


Her new favorite food, besides ice cream and m&ms, has to be cream cheese. She had some yesterday on toast and she licked it all off. Today I put it on crackers and she licked it off the cracker.
