This Past Weekend

This past weekend, Kevin had to work so Anna and I got to spend some one on one time together. Unfortunately, she's entering the teething phase so our one on one time was spent trying to make her feel better and trying not to lose my brain from all the crying. Anyway, we did have some good moments.

It started with breakfast... good ol' banana oatmeal (which she didn't eat because her teeth hurt.) Then I thought I'd try the Puffs.

 We've tried the Puffs before but she doesn't like them. In fact, she gags and throws up everytime. I don't know why I thought today would be any different. I couldn't resist taking these pics of her expression.

 

 

 This one cracks me up. She's giving me this look that says "I just puked and you're laughing! Not cool!"

 To make it up to her, we played in the swing for a while. She enjoyed it for about five minutes but then she got fussy so onto the next attempt to stop the tears.

So we moved to the "cage". This didn't last long. She sat there rubbing her tongue on her gums the whole time. You can see it in the picture below.

 "Where's Anna? There she is!" She didn't like that game either.

 So we moved onto the floor in our living room. Wide Open Spaces! This actually entertained her for a while because she got to chase after Houston the Cat.

  Houston, however, was not that happy but I appreciate him playing along. Thanks Buddy!

 Plus, I finally got a smile out of the deal. Maybe things were taking a turn for the better.

 So we decided to meet Meme, Grandad and Lindsey for lunch at MiMi's. She was happy to see them but she definitely wasn't herself.

After lunch we went shopping but that was cut short because of the fussiness. That's ok, I didn't need to buy anything anyway. So we went home and Anna took a 3 hour nap! She NEVER takes a 3 hour nap! Most days, she doesn't take a nap at all. Anyway, when she woke up, she had a bad case of Bed Head!

She seemed to be feeling a little better so we played dress up. I'm trying the whole bow thing. Her hair is growing longer but not quite long enough for any major up do's.

Then our hero came home. Yeaaaaaa Daddy's home!!! She's become a daddy's girl so after all of my attempts to keep her happy, all he had to do was walk in the door and do this...

 

 

 For the record, I tried this and I got nothin'!

All in all, we survived the day. And through all the tears, hers and mine, I had a really good weekend and I wouldn't have spent it any other way. I love you Banana.
