Weekend Wrap Up

On Friday morning Amelia woke up with a bit of a fever. I could tell that she wasn’t feeling well, and I was afraid that she was getting the cold Mark had earlier in the week. I decided that we should skip our play group so she could rest and recuperate. Within a few hours she was back to her normal self, but it was too late to get to our play group -  she ended up spending quite a lot of time playing with my sneakers and showing off for the camera. She thought it was so funny to do something with the shoes and then run back to me so I could play the video for her. What a silly girl!

On Saturday we hopped into the car and headed to Knoxville to try and go to the zoo. When I checked the weather before we left, there was only a 40% chance of rain – it started raining on our way down, though, and kept raining for hours. Instead of visiting the zoo, we headed to the mall so that Amelia could get out of the car and run around to let some energy out. We walked all around the mall and had some tasty lunch in the food court. Amelia had a turkey panini along with a blueberry & banana smoothie, Mark had a cheese steak and fries and I had a lamb gyro. Amelia was wonderful in the car, and napped most of the way home. Even though our plans for the day fell through, we all had a great time together as a family.

On Sunday we went to the Splash Pad so Mark could see what it was all about. Amelia brought her truck and her red ball, and had a lot of fun running around! Later in the day we took Shelby to PetSmart to get her nails trimmed. Amelia enjoyed looking at all of the fish, birds and hamsters/gerbils/guinea pigs.

We had a great weekend and hope to visit the zoo sometime soon, when the weather is drier (and maybe cooler)!
