Beginning Vacation Week

So it's the beginning of my much needed week off. So far it's been really good minus the rain. Saturday morning Maddy woke up at 6:00 a.m., which is sleeping in for us haha. I did our normal routine which is giving her a bottle then changing her diaper. I usually pick out her outfit once she's all taken care of. We had planned on going to the Strawberry Festival in Dayton just to see what it was all about. For her 7:30 nap I decided to stroll her around the neighborhood until she decided she was ready to wake up. By around 9 not only was I tired, but I also needed to use the restroom so I decided to call it quits and get ready to go to the festival since it started at 9 anyways. I didn't realize just how big the strawberry festival was...they have a parade and people were lined up waiting to see it. It was like a mini riverbend...they had all the yummy food vendors there as well as jewelry and shirts and other stuff I probably didn't see. Maddy was amazed at all the people I think because she just sat up looking the entire time lol. I got a handmade bracelet that is magnetic and is supposed to help with arthritis. If you have arthritis i strongly suggest it because i do not have the aches and pains I normally would have with this kind of rain. After the festival we went to baskin robbins and then to my mom's work for a second and then we spent the rest of the day with my sister and my 2 nieces. They came up and we brought all 8 puppies in the hosue to try to get them to eat and they were sooo cute!!!

Today has been kinda a chill out day. I did take Maddy on a walk while she napped, but it only lasted 30 minutes due to the rain. Her dad comes and visits on Sundays so he came up and spent time with her and then I decided to try to go on another walk thinking the rain was done with, but oh no. We walked probably about 30 minutes and were headed down the hill and then the bottom just let loose! We ran to get back home because strollers only protect babies so much. Now Maddy is in her jump a roo watching Sprout and I'm writing this and enjoying hearing all her sounds.

If you're reading this please give me time to understand how this works and hopefully I can make my blogs look really neat. I love to talk and write down how I'm feeling so I will be writing a lot! I hope everybody has had a great weekend!
