06/19/2005 Archived Entry: "a day for dads"

Today was nice. Chris was pleasantly surprised by his gifts. One thing I had done was buy Daisy a onesie tha said "Daddy's Girl" and when she woke up I pulled it out of it's hiding place and got her dressed without him knowing and then presented her to him. He thought that was cute. Chris also enjoyed his breakfast that I made for him. I had a small burrito myself and it was rather tasty, if I do say so :)

We had dinner at a friend's house with their family and my mil was there as well. My fil is in Vegas with my bil so we didn't see him even though it's Father's Day. There were two kids for Tabi to play with so she had a grand old time. Daisy had trouble sleeping with the noise generated by so many people, but she wasn't cranky about it or anything. She smiled at the right people and was a general doll.

Our diaper bag got something yucky on it and we're not sure what. All we know is everytime we pick it up, we get black stuff all over us. I haven't been pleased with it's functionality (or lack thereof as the case may be) so this kind of gave me the perfect excuse to purchase a new one. I looked up a designer line on the internet tonight that I fell in love with when I saw one hanging off someone's stroller at Disneyland one day. I'd been meaning to look it up and kept forgetting. They sell it at boutiques and places like Nordstrom's so Chris and I were figuring around $85. Nope, $155! Um, no thanks. We finally found the materials listed and it's made out of silk anyway, which we don't purchase, so it's a definite no go. We did more research online and we might hit the baby boutique and/or Babies R Us tomorrow to see what we see. We saw a few other ones that we like, well, I like, as I'm definitely looking at a bag for me, not a gender neutral one that either of us could use. Let's hope I can find them in the store to look over as I will not buy a diaper bag without really being able to go through it.

We were going to go to Disney tomorrow, but Tabitha needs more sleep. We cancelled all our plans from last Friday through today, though we did go to the dinner party. The kid just needs a break after all her hard work in hula. She will not resume hula until our halau is back from their competition the first weekend of July. She's not missing much as the focus right now is on the competition teams, though she's a bit miffed because she's missing a few weeks. But I know this is best for her right now.
