we had a wonderful time in illinois visiting family and meeting new cousins, aunts, uncles, pop-pop's, great-grandparents, 2nd cousins, 3rd cousins and so on and so on. ugh! WONDERFUL time. sweet pea got to ride a train at one mall, a carousel at another. i've never seen such a look of elation on her face as when she got to ride the carousel. however. i've also never seen her throw such an instant fit as when the carousel stopped. she got to see family from both sides. she learned so much this week. mudders taught her how to play the piano. she's started talking up a storm and eating like a banchee. i can't wait for weigh in this wednesday morning. she also learned a new noise that is much like a growl with the pitch of a screech layered in. wow! she was making that noise as we were boarding the airplane to come home and i put her in time out in her stroller for making it. it's really an awful noise. after her time out was over i picked her up and was explaining that we don't make such awful noises and that's why she was put in time out and...then she interrupted me with a kiss. that was the end of that speech. and that awful noise. this morning when we went back to school she wouldn't let go of me until i explained that tonight we would come home and just hang out. no appointments. no errands. just hanging out at home. and then she decided to finally let my neck go. it was a wonderful time.
