When I woke up on Friday morning, I was looking forward to Ganny Day. When Daddy loaded me up in the car, I thought he was nuts…Ganny is supposed to come to our house. But, Mommy drove me a little way to meet up with Ganny and we went back up to Lafayette to spend the day there. We had a fun day together that was capped off by a visit from Aunt Carrie and Uncle Manata. Finally, Mommy and Daddy got up to Lafayette right around my bedtime, and by the time Saturday morning rolled around, I figured out why we were staying up there.
I woke up Saturday, had breakfast, and then we loaded up in the car for a BIG road trip. I slept a little of the way, but they don’t understand what a big chunk of your life 3 hours is when you’ve only be around for 16 months. Anyway, it was worth it because we got to spend the day with Patrick. His mommy and daddy were very nice about me playing with his toys and sitting on anyone or anything that was under my butt. After I let everyone in Chicago (or, at least Chili’s) know how good my lungs and vocal cords work, we headed back for a quick nap and then off to the Walsh’s. THEY HAD A TURTLE! I really like animals, but you don’t know how excited I get when I see an animal that I can say the name of…over and over and over again! Another loooong drive home that night (whoever had 4 1/2 minutes until I was snoring wins the pool) and we were back at home.
But, hey, what weekend, or weekday for that matter, would be complete without ANOTHER car trip. We packed up this morning and headed back to Lafayette to see Grandpa. He got a new hip, so I wanted to come up and see how “hip” he really is. He gave me his balloon, so he’s pretty hip in my book.
