Donut and Flower's Day


Today we've been out and about practically ALL day! We barely made it home in time to get a nap in for Rett. We started out the day with a trip to Krispy Kreme donuts. Rett had never been and I have only been once. I thought he might like it because you can actually watch the donuts being made. From the fryer, to the glazing, cooling and packaging. Well, I was right. Rett LOVED it. He was so intrigued by all the moving parts on the conveyor belt and how he could watch it from start to finish. The store was pretty empty and the ladies that worked there were so nice they gave Rett a chair to stand on to watch the donuts and an "official" Krispy Kreme hat to wear. (Note: We did this in lieu of Jazzercise this morning...not the healthiest choice.)

Next stop was to a playgroup where Rett had a complete and utter meltdown. So, I won't mention much about it other than we were only able to stay about 30 mins...

Last on the agenda was Home Depot to get some spring flowers. With the sun-shining I just like to have a little bit of color to look out the window to. It just so happened that they had a double "car" cart that I could put Rett and Ellie in. They looked so cute together and Rett was very protective of her...most of the time he had his hand on her back making sure she didn't fall. I think he really thought he was driving...he kept beeping the horn and telling people to "watch out".



Oh, and I almost forgot: SLEEP UPDATE (Night 3): Best night yet. Rett woke up only 1 time (at 4:15am). He came in our room, but I quickly picked him up and carried him back to his bed and he had a few sips of water out of his sippy cup and fell back asleep until 7:15am!!! Whoo-hoo! I gotta say, he loves earning stickers.
