Weekend Fun! [Part 1]

This post will come in two parts, because the camera full of pictures is somewhere between Findlay and home right now. But it's been several days since an update, so I need to share!

We had a great weekend! My parents came over for some Amelia-loving. She was so excited to see her grandparents and show off her new tricks!

Friday night, my mom and I went to see "A Chorus Line", while the men put the kid to bed and watched the Stanley Cup final.

Saturday morning, we went down to check out the farmer's market after Amelia's morning nap. We grabbed some awesome sandwiches from 12 South Deli, in Delaware, and Amelia entertained/annoyed a diner-full of patrons. After another nap, we just hung out at the house for some nice family time.

On Sunday, we had a bit of a rocky start. Amelia's morning nap was a big fat FAIL. She just kept chatting up a storm with herself, shrieking "daddy!" every few minutes. You see, he had gone for the day, and super-smart Amelia knew something was missing. All day it was "Daddy!!!". We gave up, and Amelia, mommy, and the grandparents went to church and to lunch. At church, she was in rare form -- yelling, throwing things, spitting out food, etc. But, we got her home, and she took a major afternoon nap. Later, we checked out a small arts event in Delaware. We came home, and about a dozen "daddy!"s later, Amelia went to sleep soundly.

Where was Daddy!? He was up in Michigan at the Nascar race with HIS daddy. They were guests of the Kellogg racing folks, and he got to see their team WIN from the pit!

Amelia had an awesome time with her grandparents. She became quite the giver at the kissies, which had previously just been reserved for mom and dad. With much practice with Grandma, she said "Amma" once (attempting "grandma"). She crawled with such ferociousness that her knees are bruised! She was quite the entertainer.

But one area that she is NOT happy in... she will not share her bean bag chair! If you dare sit on Amelia's bean bag, she will grab/claw/scream... whatever it takes to get you off. :)

Oh, and do a uTube video of "the foot" - dragging - before she quits! She'll be walking in no time - just over the weekend she seemed more interested. Lv, Gma R
