On Wednesday afternoon, you and Mommy headed towards good ole Munford, again! Mommy had (yes, had) to head in for her biannual trunk show for you!!! This trip, we stayed at Papa Rob's, and what a blast we had. We got there a little later than wanted on Wednesday, but that didn't stop you from being super excited to see Papa Rob and Gramma. After a real quick dinner (chicken with ketchup, your fave these days) and a very juicy peach, you played with Papa Rob for what seemed like forever, and then went to bed. You needed your rest because what a day we had on Thursday. After waking up super early for you (6:30), you helped Gramma get ready for work while Mommy got our things together, cause we were headed to the water park!!! That's right, right up the street from Munford is the Ripley Water Park. Mommy and you, Mimi and Em, Ashy and Clara Lee, and Miss Jamie and Jack all went, oh, and Jesse and Hunter, who I think you are taking a liking to, which is fine with Mommy, even if he is 15 because he is so good with you kiddos! Anyway, so the water park - you L-O-V-E-D it! I cannot believe we've waited this long to go. It's a big pool, that starts off even with the ground and gets deeper and deeper as you go - I'm sure it has a name, but i just call it the beach effect pool, you know, how a beach slopes and gets deeper and deeper. Anyway... it was this pool, and then it had 2 little kiddo slides, of which you loved to stand in front on one, the faster one, so when the kids came down, their feet would accidentally knock you down into the water, and Mommy would have to run, through the water, and catch you before you drowned. A bit dramatic, yes, but the honest to goodness truth. You were sooo stinkin' fearless (guess you picked that up from the swim date with Cole last week...). You took off into the pull, swimmie free, and would just run and jump and go face first in and just keep walking, deeper and deeper. Mommy didn't mind you not having your swimmies on if you stayed up towards the shallow end, but you didn't want that - you wanted the deep end, where you had to hold you neck up just to breathe!! I am pretty sure you were 'saved' at least 3 times before Mommy decided it was swimmies or no pool! And, you seemed to just mind your own self, didn't pay any attention to anyone else. You just swam in your own little world!! Oh, and there was this giant mushroom thingamabob there that sprayed water off the edge - oh boy, did you love that thing!! You would just stand underneath it, like it was a shower or something! All in all, a REALLY good time at the waterpark. Here are a few pictures:
We weren't even out of the parking lot and you were conked out!!! What a fun day! Thankfully you slept most of the ride home, and when we got home, we had to quickly get ready to go to dinner with Papa Rob and Gramma. They took us to a new restaurant, Humdingers, and it was yummy! You had fish and french fries, with ketchup, of course, but you were too intrigued by the fact that you were not in a high chair. Lesson #2847 learned - Abigail cannot handle a booster seat just yet... We're sticking with highchairs for a little while longer. Thankfully the man behind you was very nice and wanted to play with you, other wise, we would have had to scarf our food down!! Friday morning you finally slept in and Papa Rob just couldn't resist not seeing you before he left for work, so he woke you up to say his goodbyes. After a LONG day of shopping, we headed back to Nashville, or should I say Franklin :), and prepared for what I'm pretty sure will be labeled the busiest week ever... here's a preview: Friday = Mexican, Saturday = Aunt Amy's and the gang, Sunday = Carnton Concert, Monday = time with Daddy while Mommy volunteers all night, Tuesday = spend the night with Aunt Steph while Mommy volunteers all night and Daddy parties it up with football people (more on that later...), Wednesday = gather our thoughts, Thursday = Miss Lee comes to babysit while MOmmy and Daddy go to a wedding/Sarah comes up/Mammaw & Pawpaw may stop in for a visit, Friday = Fun day with your BFF and then a baseball game with Daddy & his work, and Saturday = slumber party with Ellie!!! WHAT IN THE WORLD is right!! Hang on tight baby girl!!!! XXXXOOO
