Just Like Mommy

Every Wednesday morning we walk to the park to meet up with friends, and yesterday was no exception. Around 10:00am I started asking Camilla to get her socks, shoes, baby etc. I put Hyrum in the baby wrap and wheeled the stroller around to the front door so Camilla could get in. When I came back inside, Camilla was patiently waiting in the entry way with her baby in her stroller. She insisted on pushing her baby to the park all by herself. I quickly switched Hyrum from the wrap to the stroller and we were off!! He enjoyed his very first stroller ride.

Camilla was very good and followed me the whole way to the park. It took us a good half an hour to walk there! Her little legs ran almost the whole way. Hyrum just chilled in the stroller.

Camilla still had energy when we arrived at the park and ran and played with all of her friends. When she finally tuckered out, it was time to go home for lunch and naps.

I folded up her baby stroller and put it away for the walk home so that Camilla could ride in her stroller. Hyrum snoozed in the wrap the whole way home.

The rest of our day was good. Camilla was excited when Mr. Stannix arrived home from work. We ate dinner, had baths and got ready for bed. Camilla seemed a bit chilled after her bath and her forehead was slightly warm. She was happy to get some sleep. Mr. Stannix and I enjoyed an episode of Smallville together on the couch. In the middle of the episode, I heard, "Addie, need some Wa-wa please?" My first name has been used a lot lately by our little girl. I'm not sure how I feel about that. After filling her sippy, and continuing with our show, I heard coughing and choking and sent Mr. Stannix up to see if she was okay. She had blown hamburger and cheese chunks all over her bedding, pillow, hair, and face. I stripped her down and sent her to lay in a nice warm bath while Mr. Stannix and I (T-shirts over our noses) cleaned up the bed. She slept pretty good last night and seems to be feeling better this morning... Chicken noodle soup for lunch should do the trick, and then off for naps!
