Mallory felt AWESOME today! After a week and 1/2 of the extreme grouchiness that can come with teething we finally had a happy day.
She got up around 8 a.m. We shared a banana and played while Mommy drank her coffee. I tried & tried to get a picture of her first tooth that is barely peeking through, but every time I snapped the pic she stuck her tongue out.
When breakfast was over, her & Chewy "helped" Mommy work out. Next we got ready for lunch at Smashing Tomato with some fun friends from ecampus. We decided on a super cute pink & orange sundress from Mimi. Mallory has to look good when she hits the town.
I was a little scared about lunch since she has had a rough time lately, but she sat up in her high chair with one foot propped up and "talked" to everyone. She was a very sweet girl.
After lunch, we went to the Dollar Tree & Kroger to pick up some Father's Day goodies. Mallory rode in her Kokopax (a backpack carrier) on both trips and didn't make a peep. She did, however, flash her precious little smile at every person who passed her & exclaimed "What a pretty baby!" She knows when she is getting a compliment already...I am going to have my hands full with this one.
We got done shopping and came home for a nice long nap & a chat with our Mammaw. I am not sure who was more worn out today, but the nap refreshed us for dinner. We made Daddy some pasta with zucchini & squash and a yummy salad with tomato & cucumber. Then Mallory ate her sweet potatoes and corn and some pears for dessert.
Finally, we all had our bedtime ritual of diapering, changing clothes, brushing our teeth & hair, and Daddy reading a book. Tonight was "Walter the Farting Dog." Mallory got really excited about the book and tried to kick it out of his hand while he read. When she got sleepy enough and decided to stop kicking, we all cuddled until she fell asleep.
Just a normal day, but a perfect day. And she only pooped ONCE. I am such a lucky girl.
