Every Friday morning I wake up to my little bundle of energy attempting an early morning call to China...or my mom, or my friend Somer...
Just ask Somer...it is not uncommon for her to see a missed call on her phone at 7am from my number. *sigh* Ellie then smothers me with kisses and I immediately forget about everything else...
After her early morning calls she spends the next 15 minutes pulling all my underwear out of my drawer while I shower. Midway through shower she opens the door and hands me some treasure she has found (today it was a bottle opener...seriously how does she find these things!?). She then toddles off to find more treasures or to wear my underwear on her head.
I get out of the shower to get ready for the day. She watches me and "talks" to me and then insists that she too needs make up...
Then we are off to get her dressed for her date with Gymbo.
The clown.
Every Friday is our Gymboree day. We have a 9:15 date with Gymbo, teacher Robb, and any friends ages 10-16 months that stop by. Ellie LOVES her Gymboree class...especially on the Fridays that Daddy comes.
OK so those Fridays are the BEST Fridays.
But first we always head to Starbucks for some coffee, scones, and people watching.
Then we head to Gymboree so Ellie can spend 50 minutes doing...
After Gymboree we often go shopping or window shopping, and then go home, have lunch, and snuggle together on the couch for nap time. I just LOVE our snuggle time!
Ellie wakes in a couple hours and we play around until Daddy gets home (on his on days) and then we go out to dinner. After dinner we all snuggle up together on the couch for stories and TV time until Ellie drifts into dreamland.
I Just LOVE Friday's and I know I need to take it all in now because I am going to blink my eyes and Ellie will be all grown up.
Until next time....
