Butterfly Pavilion

Today we all headed to the Butterfly Pavilion with the grandparents. Saya was really tired but the 15 minute nap in the car seemed to help her get through. We then came home for lunch and then headed to Costco. We all enjoyed a big pizza and got some food shopping done for the rest of the weekend.

Saturday morning bright and early. Saya enjoying some tea in her new chair.

22nd Month Birthday & Fabulous Friday & Grandparents

Happy 22nd month birthday to Saya. My is she growing up so fast. 2 more months and she will be 2 years old.

On Friday, we headed to Fabulous Friday at the library. The show was great and mommy was enjoying it but the little one just didn't want to stay and watch so we went to the library to check out a few books and headed back home. Daddy worked from home and cleaned the house before grandma and grandpa arrived. After a couple of hours Saya got up from her nap and grandpa and grandma came over bearing gifts. We decided to eat a nice dinner at home with everyone and enjoy the night. That we did. We even got to Golden Spoon for a nice cold treat. Saya was exhausted but we got her to go to bed at a decent hour which was great.

A tea set from Grandpa. Saya always wanted one and finally got the one she always plays with at PBK. Highly recommended toy.

Hurry Grandpa, open it. 

Saya made grandpa a gift too. 

A step stool- a nice pink one.

Pool time in the backyard.

Saya insisted in running around barefoot. But after stepping in doggie poop, I think Saya realized how nice shoes are. 

Cute little footprints.

Is she going to be a firewalker? 

Grandparents, daddy and baby enjoying GS outside. The boysenberry flavor was a hit.

No complaints from Saya.

We saw the biggest cruiser bike at GS. We had to take a picture.
