I took Laney to Palm Desert this weekend to see Pops at the Betty Ford Center. I planned to have her nap all the way there in the car. Guess who would not take a nap! She was in such a good mood as we drove, talking to herself and laughing too. She watched some "moomies" and then I turned off the DVD player hoping that she would get bored and sleep. I even turned on an audio book and that didn't do the trick.
All that worrying for nothing because she was a little angel while visiting my dad. She was cute with him, and was even more adorable chasing ducks on the lawn by the pond. She was running all around the lawn with a big smile on her face as we tried to catch ducks. I brought her new trike with us and she rode around the grounds too. We took turns pushing her around, and then she got tired of it and we all hung out on the lawn in the sun playing. Mom and I left at 5pm, and Laney was asleep in 2 minutes in the car. She woke up at 6:30 in Temecula, so we fed her McDonalds for dinner. She really loves ranch dressing and chicken nuggets.
Last night we took her to Costco with us and she ate pizza with much gusto for dinner! She was taking big snapping bites and adding sound effects too. Hilarious! This morning Patrick was letting her eat a chocolate frosted doughnut for breakfast and I got a big, chocolatey kiss when I left for work. How I love that kid!
