This morning we woke Dekker up from a dead sleep to go to Dalmeny to watch the parade. We went to my parents house first and we all walked downtown together to find a spot for our lawn chairs. The parade started right on schedule and made the circuit twice. Dekker was pretty chill, and while he is always super cute, he looked super bored the whole time. We pointed out everything to him! Horses, music, friends, firetrucks, etc. Nothing. But his cuteness got us a good haul of candy that, even after coaxing, he would not sample. More for us!
We napped Deks for about an hour at my parents house before heading out to the city for some grocery shopping. We hit the mall first to try to find Dekker a hat. Baby hats have never fit his massive noggin and now that he’s out in the sun more, he needs something. So we went trendy. So worth it.
I know, you can’t really see it, but its a flexfit Hurley hat. Its actually super awesome. I would wear it, but its too small. However, it is a youth size so that tells you something.
While at the mall, I dropped in on my hair girl to see if she could touch up my roots and give me a trim some evening this week. She unfortunately doesn’t work evenings but said she could take me in about a half hour. Lucky for me my adorable boys agreed to do the grocery shop on their own so I stayed back and got pampered for a little while. It was really nice. My hair is freshly blonded, and the cut is just a little different than last time, and I like it more. Win!
It was a total score of a day. The evening was hard again, with Dekker struggling so hard at bedtime. But while he cried on his change table, Brady decided to take a different approach to the chaos, and tickled Dekker until he laughed. It was great from there on out. Lots of tickles and cuddles and peekaboos.
We’ve all had some nice sun, and we’re looking forward to outdoor church in the morning, after a bagel breakfast. Anyone is welcome!!! Come on, come all!
