We got up this morning and after breakfast, headed to pick up Mimi. On the way, Annabelle drank her bottle, which I've noticed if we don't get home within about a half hour, she would inevitably go in her diaper. I think what I may do is start trying to get her to use the potty seat at home on the toilet, and then take that with me when I go out, so that she will use public restrooms too.
Annabelle was a little nervous around Mimi at first, and then after we got home, warmed up to her nicely.
She and Liam played in his bed for a while, which was really cute. Liam would get in and settle down and Annabelle would crawl in and wallow and giggle all around. Liam thought it was really funny.
I could tell she was getting tired because she would come up to me in the kitchen when I was rinsing dishes and would stand up behind me, clinging on the back of my legs fussing. Once she saw her bottle, that was all she wanted. She drank most of it, and then I put her down.
After nap, we went swimming. Annabelle has all the excitement of the pool Liam never did.
We went to just sit and put our feet in at first and after Annabelle felt the water, she wanted to dive right in. Of course I didn't let her, which made her mad. After a few minutes, we went inside to get our swim suits on and then went back out to have some real fun. Annabelle loved it! We put her in the kid floaty-boat-thing, and she would kick and scream and smile in pure thrill. In it, it had little yellow and blue floaty-balls which she kept trying to eat, and ended up drinking and swallowing and choking on water. I think she finally decided to stop that. I took her out off and on, and and she kept trying to leap out of my arms. Liam was in the airplane-floaty-thing, and then I put Annabelle behind him. That was really cute, but needed constant supervision since she, at one point, jumped out of it in the water. I was standing right there luckily. All and all, she had a blast and I'm sure there will be more pooling in the future for her.
We came in and she had some milk, and then got very cranky. Mimi and I both noticed that she looked pretty tired, so Mimi took her into the den, where she sat next to her, singing, and Annabelle's eyes got droopier and droopier. She wasn't falling asleep, and Mimi then went to the rocking chair, where it wasn't long till Annabelle was out. It was sweet.
She woke, in a much better mood. Then.....her Daddy came home. She got all excited when she saw him, and as soon as he walked out of the room, began to get red faced and cry. She really missed him. Phillip came back in and picked her put and she laid her little head down on his shoulder and just loved on him as he held her. It was so sweet to watch. She could barely keep her eyes off him, and kept trying to climb in his lap all evening. She really is a Daddy's girl.
