Can't say LIZ without
the GO-GO-GO!
To no one's surprise... Corpus hasn't stopped me! Yes, we are always on the move. I promised myself that when we moved I was going to get involved.. meet new people.. and jump right into making Corpus a home. Well, we are busy already! We are now members of THREE Mommy and Me playgroups. This week our adventures included playing at the indoor playground on Tuesday morning, with Grace Anne's new friends Kylie, Conner, Hadie, Ryan, and Lindy (notice Grace Anne is about to attacked this poor baby)! Then Wednesday, we went to story time at Barnes and Noble. The Barnes and Noble here is great!! It has a huge kids sections, lots of fun educational toys, and a weekly story time! We will have Barnes and Noble giftcards on Grace Anne's birthday list for sure!!! We met more fun kiddos and some really cool moms! Tomorrow we are supposed to head to the water fountains downtown for some splash time.
During our outings Daddy was of course working... Tuesday he got a nice suprise.. the afternoon off. The weather was sorta crazy here... Tropical Storm Hermine... and the trainer that was here insisted they not work that afternoon. The winds were 60 mph Monday night and the rain was heavy, but all and all it was no big deal (we can only hope all tropical weather comes and goes so easily)... BUT, back to my point.. Daddy had the afternoon off and we made a trip to the Texas State Aquarium. It's very close to our house and we've heard great things... we loved it! I would say Grace Anne loved it.. but we all loved it. Daddy loved the huge sea turtles... Grace Anne was infatuated with the seahorses... and Mommy really liked the dolphin show. It's a pretty neat place.. so neat we are now members and will be going back as often as we like!
Today we walked about 3 miles today... we have lots of sidewalks and parks in Corpus Christi! I've got to get walking back in our routine! It's strange because it feels cooler at noon than it does at 8am since the breeze isn't blowing hard at 8am... But, as I found out today.. the sunlight it direct at noon-- so now I have a lovely red forehead! Oh well...
Trauma follow-up: Grace Anne is fine. She shows no strange signs of injury or anything unordinary after her falls. She is on the other hand traumatized by "Mean Mommy" trying to make her nap! She fights sleep so badly and spent 45 minutes in her crib screaming and jumping (on her unsafe mattress that we need to replace).... There is no denying that our child is spoiled and gets held when she wants... but oh well... we did it to ourselves and Daddy says we will hold her until she's 18 if she wants us to!
