Today was a pretty decent day overall. We finally made it to church and Maddy made it through the entire service. Given, she was extremely squirmy, but quiet for the most part. There was one time towards the end of service she had me laughing so hard I was almost crying. You could tell she had HAD it. She was stir crazy and Matt was holding her. She was doing gymnastics in his arms and just being plain silly. (We were in the back pew, so as long as she was quiet, we only had 10 minutes left so...whatever.) I was singing a hymn and next thing I know she bent over, gave me a kiss and as quickly as she appeared she was gone. It was cute. She also sang some hymns in church today, too and it was really cute.
After her nap we went back out to a birthday party for a girl in my mom's group. Maddy had an absolute blast and played virtually the entire time all by herself. Now and again she'd look at us and what not, but we had to go out to her the entire time to bring her water or try to cool her off. It was warm out and her cheeks were flushed. But she found the bubble table and from that point forward nothing could have persuaded her to do anything else. Matt said he wished she wasn't 'quite' so independent since she seemed to go from needing us to not needing a thing from us in less than a day! After her cupcake which she didn't touch (give her chips and she'll chow down) we headed home. It was time for a bath!
We came home and Matt gave her a bath while I cleaned up and made dinner. However, Maddy is in a really bad habit of throwing food over the last week. If it's something she doesn't want she hurls it off her tray. She's doing the same with toys in the living room. I'm hoping this is a stage because honestly, it's extremely frustrating to #1 waste food (since at least I can save what she doesn't eat in a gladware but can't do that if she throws it) #2 I need to clean it up! Grrr....
Ok, well, I'm off to hang out. I'm hoping for an early bedtime tonight. Have a good one!
Tea of the day: Quick coffee this AM and a big glass of sun tea this afternoon.
