Just can't believe how fast the time flew by today...this morning, Maddie and I left to take Bryant "B" to PDO (parents day out) program. He goes every Tuesdays and has been going there since January. When we dropped him off, his arm reached over to one of the aides there...he LOVES it there and thank goodness for that. Now, this may come to a shock to most of you and you're probably thinking-"Oh, but he's so young" or "I stay at home full-time." Well, here is a simple answer...Maddie. Ever since, B was born...I hardly had any time alone with her and now, here's my chance and I'm making it up to her. Between us, there's always something girly going on....whether it's painting our nails, having a "pretend" beauty spa like the book, "Fancy Nancy", watching a movie or just shopping for clothes, shoes or toys...so our 5 hours together every Tuesdays are worth it...
After we dropped him off, I drove back home so I could get cleaned up and get ready for our "Mommy and Me" date to Chuck E.Cheese. Before I got into the shower, Maddie had already picked out her movie and the movie of the day was "Monsters, Inc." She loves that movie...however, when it comes to going to bed @ night, she would always ask, "Can you turn the closet light on?" Hmmm, I wonder why that is...for anyone who has seen the movie.
An hour later, off we go to the mall...as I was driving, I told Maddie that I needed to return a few things while we were there...I parked the car, got Maddie unbuckled-as always she had to take her purse with her...if you need to know what's inside-I'll tell you...lip gloss, left over Chuck E. Cheese coins, shades and candy. First stop was ON...didn't have Maddie's shoe size-got a refund, then to The Children's Place-exchanged for a bigger sized tulle skirt. As I was waiting in line to be checked out, Maddie was doing her little "toy" searching with her "I WANT THIS, I WANT THAT..." look on her face. She had a few things she wanted to have, but I told her she can either have one of the three or Chuck E. Cheese. She wanted the toy and do the Chuck E.Cheese another time. I had to remind her what would happen if I got her the toy and she understood. This particular toy was an odd shaped ball, but not just a ball...A PINK BALL!!!
So, then it was time to get something to eat before we left to get Bryant. I asked her if pizza sounded good and she said, "Yes, but be sure it's plain pizza with nothing on it." We headed out to Sbarro's and got two slices of plain cheese pizza and waters. She ate it down to the crust and asked for another slice...to let you in on a little secret...I freaked out when I saw the total on the cash register-$8.03...R-I-D-I-C-U-L-O-U-S, isn't it!!! So I bribed her with mini cookies from The Cookie Store and that worked like a charm. So that's the last of our Mommy and Me date as we headed out to get B from PDO. Until next time...
