Making It a Party

The weekends are so nice.  I get so rundown over the course of the week, but then Saturday rolls around.  We spent the day out and about.  Selah June went to a birthday party for Lydia Ingram.  Unfortunately, she didn’t get a good nap in before the party, and we weren’t able to stay very long.  But while we were there, she loved crawling as fast as she could to keep pace with the bigger kids.  They thought she looked like a little doll, and they were good sports as she took their toys and promptly put them in her mouth.

Of course, there was a poopy diaper.  SJ says, “It’s your party, and I’ll poop if I want to!”

We realized after about the third poop of the day that she’s probably eating too many mandarin oranges for her own good.  While they are incredibly delicious and the perfect baby fruit, too many servings can do a number on your number 2.

We ended the day at Cracker Barrel with Grammy and Grandpa.  All the people and noise and big plates of food kept SJ entertained throughout dinner.  She liked the biscuits, and she especially liked banging spoons on the table until they fell on the floor.  We left a whole table’s worth of cutlery in our wake — along with bits of boiled egg, chicken parts, and bits of green bean.

What can I say?  She does what she wants.
