Addison and I like to call Mondays and Fridays our "Addy Mommy Day" since I don't work those days and we get to spend the whole day together. This past Monday was our last official Addy Mommy Day. I tried to explain it to Addison and tell her that in the future it will be Addy Mommy Baby Day, but not sure that has totally sunk in yet. While she is super excited for the baby to come, not sure she really realizes that she isn't going to completely be the center of attention anymore!
I've slowed down quite a bit as the belly has grown, but I tried to keep up the energy as long as possible. We started the day with her watching a TV show in bed with me then we moved to the family room for another show and breakfast. Then we met Gail, Emily and Thomas for some fun at Pump It Up. Addison and Emily LOVE running all over that place and Gail and I love being able to just sit on the bench for mom talk and tend to the girls when they inevitably bounce on top of each other and bonk heads or noses or cheeks or something. Fortunately a quick kiss and they are off again! Here are the princesses enjoying their princess gummy snacks on Monday.
Then we had planned to go grab lunch, but Addison decided she wanted peanut butter and tortilla at home for lunch, so home we went. After that the afternoon consisted of painting rocks in the back yard, Addison "cooking" with leaves and berries she picked from the yard, a trip to the library to get some new books, and a trip to the grocery (this wasn't on Addison's to do list, but it is part of our typical routine). Then mommy had to rest on the couch for a bit and then daddy came home. It was a great time and I'm looking forward to the challenge of figuring out how to have Addy Mommy Baby Day in the future!
