Saturday we lounged a round all day until the evening and then went to my cousin's daughter's high school graduation party. Riley had so much fun jumping on the trampoline and playing with the dogs. There house is awesome! They have done so much work and it's just beautiful! Love the patio stones and the hot tub and pool! Wish I lived there!
After we left which Riley had a minor melt down but I stayed cool and got her to stop rather quickly we went to Babies R Us to pick out a gift for my Brother In Laws Sister's baby shower that was the next day. That little stinker baby came the day before the shower 6 weeks early! Both baby and Mom are doing just fine! The shower went on as planned and the new Dad got to open all the trillions of gifts!
After we left there Riley and I went home to get Zach to go over to the east side to a carnival. We meet up with his Mom and Sister. Riley had a blast going on the climber slide thing over and over and over again with her Cousin Calvin who despite being 6 and HUGE loved it too and they had a blast! Daddy won Riley a huge Hello Kitty by playing basketball. Which Riley is just trilled with and has slept with the past too nights even the the thing takes up her whole bed!
The bad was I don't know if it was something I ate or the heat but I woke up last night and had a very bad IBS attack and Zach had to stay home this morning so I could sleep since I was up all night sick.
Riley is totally in love with the Toy Story movies. She has not seen 3 yet but will watch 1 & 2 all day if we let her which she got today since Daddy went into work at Noon and Mommy still wasn't feeling that well. She ran around the house pretending to be Buzz Lightyear talking into her arm saying came in Star Command, running with her eyes closed saying "I Can Fly!" and saying TO Infinity and Beyond! It was just too cute she did this all running around in just a shirt and Underwear which mad it even cuteier! Zach got it on tape!
Riley has been doing SO much better and me as well! I know when a tantrum is coming and I nip it in the bud before it gets too bad. I've learn that giving her 2 choices is the way to go. It's either you will do this and then we can do this or you will do this and you can't do that. But she knows either way she's going to do what I want. So it was a very good weekend and she was very good today also so I'm crossing my fingers that this will keep up!
Now I'm not saying she is as sweet as pie all day long and doesn't everything right when I ask i know that will never happen but there is no yelling and screaming and me going off the deep end just to get her to come inside or something.
She is noticing that when she behaves good things happen like all the fun we had this weekend. I wasn't going to take her to the baby shower but she was so good in the store and slept till 10:15 on Sunday that I decided too.
Today we finally made it to the ice cream truck! I have been trying all summer! Most of the time it doesn't come down the street even! Today I heard it and I said come on Riley hurry lets get pants on! She was in her nigh shirt and me in mine at 5pm because I didn't feel that great. I got my pants on and was trying to get hers on when I heard the truck pass the house. I said forget it and we ran down the street holding hands nither of with shoes and socks me no bra and my hair wild and Riley in her T-shirt yelling "Wait Ice Cream Man Wait!" They finally stopped for us (I think they we laughing at us and keep going because it was funny!)She got that Dora ice cream bar said Thank you Mister Ice Cream Man and walked back tot he house with me with the biggest smile on her face! And it will be something I will always remember doing with her!
