Sierra had Sunday school after mass so Weston and I got some grocery shopping done and filled the van up with gas. After Sunday school I picked up a different child... despite the fact that they had just frosted and consumed multiple sugar cookies! She looked quite darling today as well... and my little man was looking cute too (although he slept most of the morning so hardly anyone saw how adorable he looked!)
After lunch we headed out for some sunshine while we have some decent weather. We started off taking a walk around the block with Weston riding like a big boy in the stroller without the car seat for the first time. We ran into Dash and his owner, Ms. Judy while we were out. Dash in the neighborhood baset hound that Sierra loves... although I don't think the feeling is mutual, ha ha! Just after we were passing the house of another friendly neighbor and Sierra asked where Al and Leo were. I said I didn't know and she wanted to go knock and say hi. I let her go up to the door... and I think she rang the doorbell about 3 times before i could stop her. She was ready to walk off the porch when Al came out. Then she became shy and came running back to me. After a minute she asked where "al'n'leo" was?! At this point I realized that she thought that was just the dogs name!!! Much like she refers to A and D ointment as "Andy!" Silly goose!
Then Sierra wanted to ride her bike and get some more exercise! Hooray for fresh air! Look Daddy... she's practicing so she can show you when you get home for your visit. (I think we may need to raise her seat though... she's grown another inch some time lately!)
After coming back inside we made some muffins together for her birthday snack at school this week, spent some time cuddling, started putting labels on the envelopes for our post-Christmas letter this year, and reviewed the list of things she wants to do with her daddy when he gets home! It's growing...
So far she wants to:
Wrestle
Cuddle
Go Bowling
Go Fishing
Go Camping
Feed the Ducks
Go for a date... either to Buffalo Wild Wings or Chuck E Cheese
today she threw out... go in a boat?!
Oh, and while making the muffins she told me she needed to fill the muffin cups because I was hideous! (A word I've used to describe the paint job on the house across the street!) I said, well thanks! You think mommy's hideous... that I'm ugly? She said, well your gray hairs are hideous. Gotta love the things that come out of her mind and mouth. First the gray hairs made me "really old" and now hideous. Guess I'd better watch my descriptive words!!!
And here's one more smiling picture to go of the two of them. Just thought I'd share some of the fun of our day and a few new photos. Gonna have a crazy busy week and then celebrate Sierra's official birthday before embarking on my first air flight journey with two!
