Summer Lovin' -- Week Six

Sweet & Sassy Lolabug --

I can't believe it's already week six. "They" always say it goes so quickly, and it's true -- whether the "it" is summer or time with you or baby days. A little sad, I guess, but you do so many fun things these days, even in a week touched by some teething time.

This week, we returned to a baby playtime group. After a little encounter with a toddler who pushed you down in a tussle over a play horse (grr), you settled in to watch and play.

This time, you decided the toy container was better than most of the toys...
You make me laugh, little one.

Another day, we made a quick stop at a playground on our way to the library. You explored the music notes and enjoyed shaking the chained parts of the playscape.


So, then, the library. Momma thought we were going to toddler storytime, but apparently we wandered in to a mixed-age music show with Mr. Leebot. I had no idea what that meant. Apparently, this is Mr. Leebot:
Part man, part robot with funny sunglasses -- lots of silly songs. The little people seem to like him :)

I guess we had a music week, because we also tried a music "class" with songs and puppets with Ms. Angie. You liked her froggy friend:


We had some fun time with the new songs and instrument explorations. You found your toes on cue...
...and played with music sticks and shakers.

I thought Ms. Angie was really sweet.
We had a great time.

After a playdate on Thursday, your daddy decided to take a long weekend with his girls to visit family. Yay! We went to San Antonio, stopping first at a snake farm with cousin Ryan, Aunt Lindsay, Gigi, and Maw. Icky, icky snakes -- but the boys liked it. Well, Ryan liked it until Daddy nearly fed him to a python:
(Just teasin'!)

They had other animals, too, and Mommy liked them much better.


A fun time.

We returned to Maw's house for some play. Your cousin Ryan is a sweet little boy. He brought you a drink and showed you how to play with Maw's baby buggy...
...and her tent.

The next day -- Sea World! We hoped for a few hours before naptime, and we got them. We stopped for a quick family pic:
And then we met up with family. 

First, you and Daddy played...

...and then you and Ryan decided sticking wood chips through the playscape holes was better fun than the playscape itself:

We decided the little ones would like the Pets Ahoy show -- no sea animals, but lots of dogs and cats and birds doing crazy trained tricks.  I think you liked it :)
And you had time for secrets and hugs with Ryan -- so sweet!

Then on to see the show with sea lions and a walrus. I think you were a bit confused -- but still entertained.


Finally, the coral reef (and hel-LO, air conditioning)! You watched, wide-eyed, and Daddy kept you company.

Your energy meter ran low after the fish, but it was a great first trip. So glad we got to explore with Daddy, too. Another fine week :)

'Til next time, Love to my Lorelai
