They had a ball, of course. We took her over there late Saturday afternoon and told her she was going to go night night with GranDi. She didn't even bat an eye. She spends a lot of time over there anyway so I wasn't worried about her sleeping or going to bed or anything.
On Sunday morning she woke up bright and early at 645 and immediately asked to swing. So that is exactly what they did in their pajamas.
After a while they went back inside and had breakfast. My mom gave her oatmeal. B loves oatmeal but she also loves to spread it in her hair. I guess I should have warned GranDi about this.
After breakfast they went back outside for a long time. It was a beautiful morning. (I wouldn't know because I was asleep!) They went on wagon rides and Blakely had long talks with Baby Doll. (Sit baby doll! Hi baby doll! Kiss baby doll!)
They played in the sand box and she poured sand in her hair. No big deal.
I finally woke up at 11. I know. Amazing. I did wake up at 7 and it took me a while to go back to sleep but, really, eleven! I texted my mom to check on them and she said they had been up since the crack of dawn and had been outside playing since.
I am so thankful that B and my mom have such a great relationship. I know that my mom loves this baby just as much as I do and would do anything to see her happy. My mom just lights up when she sees B and B does the same. They are total buddies. Later Sunday evening after I brought B home, my mom and I were texting. This is one of the texts that she sent to me.
I am thinking this spending the night with GranDi thing needs to happen again soon. B agrees. She's been saying night night GranDi all week long!
Happy Weekend!!
