The weekend of the 17th we had a weekend full of work around the house, side work, a baseball game and a fun "Kids Day" at the playground in Westbrook. Kids Day was an event that they had at a playground in Westbrook, which had vendors public service organizations, crafts, and free food, it was fun but the activities that had were more geared toward older kids, so we spent most of our time playing on the great playground, and feeding the ducks (which I found out this is not good to do from our EnviroFriend Sarah, Opps!) Alison had a blast! We where also able to plant our annual flowers and top dress and seed our lawn (or should I say dirt). The bugs are crazy at our house though, it is awful. I think I either got bit by something or I'm allergic to the seed or something cause Sunday night after doing all the yard work we came in and my top lip swelled up to about 3 times it's normal size. It actually felt like it was going to explode. It was crazy, it did the same thing last year after doing the same activities. But after taking benadryl the swelling finally came down but the drugs knocked me out, wow that stuff is powerful. So after taking a nap on the chair or I should say after laying on the chair trying to take a nap but having Alison poking and crawling all over me saying Mommy wake up Mommy wake up, Eddie had a meeting to go to so I was on my own with her, I was afraid I would fall asleep so I had to stand the whole time he was gone. Lucky it was only a couple of hours before her bedtime. Here are some pictures taken this weekend, The one with her under the stool is her pretending the belt is a snake. That is her new thing these days. She'll run around the house chasing you saying "nake" and trys to touch you with it. It's really funny. She's also into dressing up as you will see in a couple of the pictures.
This past weekend (Memorial Day weekend) we another fun filled LONG weekend. Friday daycare was closed so we had Grammie "gammie" Smith come over and play with Alison. They had a blast going the the playground and playing outdoors. Alison could and usually does spend most of the day outside these days. She throws a fit when we have to come in. Which is great and is going to be a lot of fun this summer. Saturday we went to Sanford and enjoyed Eddie's baseball game, Which alsion provides great entertainment for all the other parents by calling and pointing for Daddy, and yelling "my daddy cochin" over and over and over. It's pretty funny but kind of distracting for Eddie, so we went for a walk on a nice trail right near the field. After the game we headed back to the Campground to spend some time with "gammie and gampa" and have a yummy grilled dinner and a nice walk around the park. Sunday I spent the am doing side work and then headed into westbrook to have some lunch and playtime at the playground. Alison once again had a blast. We then headed back to the boro and took Milo swimming in the lake, which alison thinks is so great and loves trowing the stick for Milo to fetch. She has been really interested to see the water these last few weeks, especially when we are driving she like to see the water out the window. Lucky we live by a lot of lakes, rivers and the ocean. We also had some fun while Eddie was grilling dinner with Alison's car. She loves going as fast as she can. Monday we hung-out with the Plummers, we met up with them at the Maine Wildlife Park, which is a park that has all Maine animals, like Moose, Bear, Mountain Lions, Deer, Bobcats etc. It was a lot of fun. It's so neat to see Alison and Payson together, they get along so well. And we got to witness one of the cutest things. Alison and Payson were just walking around when all of a sudden Alison came over to Payson and said "I need a hug" and proceeded toward Payson and gave and recieved a big hug. They continued to do this few more times that day, it was so darn cute. After walking around there for a while we headed to the cars to have the girls take naps on the way to freeport. Needless to say niether of the girls had a very long nap, But we headed into Friendly's for some lunch anyway. Alison was acting like she was pretty tired but after lunch we decided to try to make the trip up the road to Wolfe Neck Farm to see the animals. This ended up not being such a good idea for us. Alison was not a happy camper so we headed back home. She slept the whole way home which was about hour and a half and when we got inside she felt warm, so of course to end a great long weekend Alison has a 103.6 fever, Lovely! So she continued to have a fever through the night waking up at 12:30am with fever of 104. But she was not acting like she usually does when she's sick, when she woke up at 12:30 she was wide awake and calm, After taking her temp. she looked at me and said "poop" so I said "do you have to poop on the toilet?" and she responded with "I poop on toilet" so off we went at 12:30am to the bathroom, she sat there for a few minutes "tooting" and then said "all done" so back on with the diaper and off to the bedroom. As I sat down to rock her, she looked up at me and said "bed" so I laid her in her bed and rubbed her tummy and off she went. It was so wierd, but kind of cool too. She continued to have a little bit of a fever on Tuesday so we kept her home Tuesday and Wednesday from Daycare and she played with Grammie. They seemed to have lots of fun. Today she seemed back to her normal self so we'll see. I sure am sick of these fevers, colds, and infections. She has had her fair share of them this weekend. Here are some pictures of our weekend
