Friday Fun

Friday I took the day off of work to spend with Aliya (since I had to work Saturday). Mid morning we met up with Jennifer and Aliya's friends and headed to the Rec. Center for Pre-school swim hour. Since I spent all the time in the water with Aliya I didn't get a chance to take many pictures, I actually only took one picture of Aliya the entire swim. She loved it!!! I loved it!!!

Aliya getting out of the water at the end of the swim time, she wouldn't look at me to save her life!


After swim time we walked over to the park area at the Center for a picnic lunch. There were a ton of geese (that Aliya loved and chased all of them).

Here are three of Aliya's friends that we spent the day with!


Aliya was very proud of herself eating her yogurt all on her own. I wore just as much as she did by the end of the cup.


Here she is chasing the geese. I was pleasantly surprised she didn't get hissed at by them. We took bread to feed them, but she ate the bread herself and and just ran ofter the geese.


After her goose chase she played on the equipment. The slide is always her favorite. BUT there was goose poop all over the place and she started eating the sand...so we finished up pretty quickly.


She played so hard that she crashed on the way home. We ended up making a run to Urgent Care later that night for a bite on her leg. We are still not sure what it is, but it seems to be healing. She was given a sript for antibiotics until we hear the results of the swab test they took of the puss. YUCK! You would have thought the stethoscope had a huge needle on the end of it the way she screamed and carried on...and the evil scale. Our little ladybug threw quite the fit for the nurse. But we did get a current weight on her, 24 lbs! She doesn't appear to be in an pain from the bite, so that's good. I'll keep you posted when we get the test results back, probably tomorrow they said.

Oh, I almost forgot. We also put the super gate away Friday morning. Before we left for the pool I was putting dishes away while Aliya was playing in the living room. She got really quiet and the next thing I knew she had moved the gate from the stairs that head downstairs and was in the lower level of the house. She looked up at me with a huge smile on her face and clapped for herself. So, I took the gate away all together. She is LOVING her new found freedom in the house! Of course I kept the gate at the top of the upstairs gate up...but she is a pro at the stairs now. She is such a big girl!!!
