Cookie Day

I'm proclaiming today Cookie Day! Bailey and I went to school today to share lunch with one of my favorite custodians who is moving on to another job. One of the other teachers brought cookies so Bailey left with a whole bag all for herself. Boy did she love that!! We ran around town today running errands and played at the Galleria playplace. It should be called crazyplace! Bailey sure enjoyed herself, but I had to remind myself that I was in Mommy mode and to turn off the teacher mode. I found myself wanting to place kids in timeout for running over my girlie. She is quite a daredevil, and I'm pretty sure she could handle things without me :) Back to cookie day...When Daddy got home, he decided he needed to bake cookies, so Bailey had an extra batch to share with him. She's pretty good at dunking...Happy Cookie Day!

School's Out for SUMMER!

As of yesterday, I am officially on break and a SAHM for the next few weeks. Today Bailey and I ran a few errands then went on our first field trip to the public library. She loved it, and I loved seeing how excited she was to be there. They have a bright and cheery kids' section and she must have tried out every seat, chair, bench, and hiding cubby there was available. She spotted a book titled Apples and immediately grabbed it and said, "apples!" I like to think she is a smarty :) (of course it was covered in apple photographs) Our friends the Savages were there too, minus the littlest G, and it was so nice to see them. I can't wait to see them a little more now that the summer is here. Wednesdays are the storytime days at the library, so we'll probably make it a weekly trip to the library.

...I'm off to find a few more "free" field trips for the rest of our weeks.
