My Assistant for the Day




Sami, Riley, and I had a very busy day. I got tired just watching Sami take care of and play with Riley. Started the day making sure that Riley had a full belly and then we went to Wal-Mart. Picked up a few things including a new walking toy for Riley. He must have known it was for him because as soon as I put it in the cart he placed his hand on it and he rode around the store making sure no one was going to take it away from him. Then it was off to Sonic for my usual diet coke and Sami got breakfast, poor Riley didn't get anything, maybe next time.

When we got back to the apartment is was time for our walk. When Riley and I go for our walks we kind of stroll along and look at things and take our time. Sami thought we were in a race and I finally had to tell her to slow down. We saw the ducks on the way to the playground. Sami and Riley really enjoyed swinging and going down the slide. Thank goodness Sami is a trooper because the slide was all wet but she really wanted to go down with Riley so she didn't mind getting her butt wet and Riley did have a good time.

Back to the apartment for some lunch and then it was time for Riley's nap. Of course today he slept for 3 hours, he has never done that for me. It drove Sami crazy, she annouced every five minutes to begin with and then it was every half hour. I guess Sami just tired him out. When Riley did wake up we played the rest of the afternoon away.

Got home and gave Tammy a call and found out they were going out to dinner at Macaroni Grill so it was decided we would meet them there and give Sami back. Had a great dinner, they gave us our own room (there were nine of us) and this huge table. We always have to have a big party so we can get this room.

Cole was going to come home with us but he decided he would rather go swimming. It was early to bed at our house because tomorrow we are driving Nikki and Riley to Jacksonville.

We all met up at Andy and Nikki's apartment and were on the road by 0715. The trip was pretty easy. Hadn't been up I-4 in a long time and everything looks so different. Got to Nikki's Mom's at about 1015 so we made pretty good time. One stop at Kim's exit for a soda and bathroom break.

After dropping them off we met up with Kim at the Scrapbook store on Old St Augustine Rd. Lots of new stuff. Then it was off to lunch at Taco Bell. We all got Taco Bell but Breann, she and Tammy walked over to McDonald's to get her lunch.

Then we were just killing time, went to Target and walked around and looked at books. Then we found a movie theater and saw Surf's Up, pretty cute movie and those that stayed awake enjoyed it. Next was ice cream at Cold Stone Creamery. That is when Nikki called and said she would be spending the night and her dad would bring her home on Sunday. So I was on the road at about 1640 and starting from 95 and 295. The trip home was pretty good not alot of traffic and it went by fast. Got home at about 1900. I was tired but it was a good day and that is all that mattered.
