Mommy surprised Charlotte with a trip to Baskin Robbins Wednesday after school for "31-Cent Scoop Night"! Lets not kid ourselves...it was just as much a treat for Mommy as it was for Charlotte! Charlotte loved her ice cream - and even flirted with the firefighters (this was a firefighters charity event) on site! It was a beautiful day so we sat outside -- and didn't mind that Charlotte was all sticky and smelled like vanilla for the rest of the night!
Its really nice that Charlotte can feed herself (after you cut it up and put it on the table of course...) these days. She even sits in our room while we get ready in the mornings and drinks her bottle by herself. She loves getting in her seat, taking time to pick out just the right bite of food up and then taking it straight to the mouth! Being that one of her favorite things is applesauce, she still has to have Mommy and Daddy give that from the spoon... but its nice to be catered to every once and a while, isn't it??
We took Charlotte to her first Riverdogs game this past weekend -- it was a hit! She enjoyed herself, as did mommy and daddy, as we all took in the sights, sounds, and smells of "The Joe" (our local stadium). We look forward to many more!
