Friday night Lotte went to the aquarium for the first time. It was super fun! She loved to look at all of the fish swimming around. She loved the jelly fish and her eyes darted quickly as they swam past. She also really enjoyed tapping on the glass. She loved it so much some aquarium employee scolded us haha. After the aquarium Lotte spent some quality time with GG so I could go to Chris' surprise birthday party. I was only gone a couple of hours, but my mom texted me at 10:30 and said "does this kid ever sleep?!" HAHAH not at 10:30 she doesn't!
Saturday was another fun day for us. Charlotte had swim class again. She did amazing as per usual. She loves the water and is so comfortable in it. She never cries, even when going underwater. Her favorite part is when she gets to sit on the edge of the pool and jump in towards me. She always has a big grin on her face! After swimming we came home for lunch and resting. Charlotte is such a big girl now, she is eating like a champ. There are very few things she does not like. After lunch we headed back out to complete one of 101 things to do! We went for a hike in the nice sunny weather. We went to the Robinson Nature Center in Columbia. It is a really nice place. They had a fun nature hike which Lotte loved. She loves to be in her BOB and be out and about cruising. She is such the observer, loves to take everything in. After the hike they had a campfire set up with silly songs and they roasted us apples with cinnamon. I only took one apple for myself. Huge mistake. Lotte ate half of mine, she loved the warm apple with the cinnamon. She also loved singing silly songs with her little friends. Well after our busy day, we came home to watch movies and cuddle.
Sunday was another busy but fun day for my amazing baby. She had an awesome playdate with her friend Violet. It is always nice for Charlotte to be able to just crawl around with other babies, I really think she learns from them. Violet had a ton of fun toys Charlotte liked to play with too! After her exciting playdate she was such a lucky girl she got to to ANOTHER playdate. Charlotte went to see her cousin Holden and future husband Waylon. She had a great time!
At the end of the weekend we were definitely exhausted! Sunday night Lotte was very very fussy and had a little baby cough and some diaper rash, I was of course worried, she had a terrible night, didn't sleep at all! She went to the doctors on Monday just to get checked out, the doctor said the diaper rash was fine, just a regular old diaper rash. I am concerned that it is from the little swimmers/chlorine combination. She never had diaper rash before swimming started. The good news is that it is completely gone now, which is great. The doctor said she had some congestion and had a little cold, but lungs were clear and no ear infection and is basically a perfectly healthy baby so I was pleased. Can you believe that my little peanut weighs in at a whopping fourteen pounds and nine ounces? She is almost triple her weight when we left the hospital! She is growing beautifully!
She is getting really good at crawling to things and pulling herself up all by herself. I have a feeling she will be walking sooner rather than later. I really need to invest in some more baby gates!
Tomorrow is Valentines day, and she is the best Valentine I could have ever asked for!
