Saturday! I absolutely cherish weekends in a way I never have before. I love the time we spend together, fun things we do, naps we take, and moments we relax at home. Today was a little of everything. It’s Grandma and Grandpa’s wedding anniversary (51 years!), so we joined them for coffee at Kafe at Abopopa Hotel in Hillcrest. You had already been there with Grandma, so the owner knew you, but needed to be introduced to Dad and me. That has happened before and I think it’s so special. You go so many places with Grandma and meet so many people. I love what a little star you are of Bankers Hill.

Kafe was really lovely! Someone who looked like she might have been the owner’s wife brought out a wood toy train set and stacking cups. You had fun playing with the train set, but only until you spotted the open gate that led to the street. You made a beeline! You’re so funny. Oh, we bought a pretty bouquet for Grandma (and Grandpa too I suppose) at my favorite flower shop across the street, Green Fresh Florals. Grandma loved them.

We came home and took a nap. In the afternoon, you and I went on a long walk in the neighborhood. We walked all the way to Vons and did the grocery shopping. Then tonight, we brought Matzah with us to Trolley Barn Park where Dad and I took turns pushing you on the swings. You love the swings so much! It makes me sad that you cry so hard when we have to leave. I promised you more swings tomorrow and I’m going to keep that promise. I gave you a bath and then Daddy put you to bed.

There’s probably enough formula left for just one more small bottle and wow, I’m feeling very emotional about that. It feels like just yesterday you were a newborn drinking those 2 ounce premade bottles.

The best part of my day was you wrapping your arms around me and hugging me. How are you 15 months old (tomorrow!) and you know how to give the world’s best hug? I love you forever more than the deepest ocean, lovebug.
