I told Blakely that we were going to have a super special day but I didn't tell her what we were going to be doing. I told her it was all a surprise because, of course, she loves surprises.
The day started off with a big bubble bath.
After her bath I got her dressed and told her the first thing we were going to do was to go get fitted for some new tennis shoes. She has needed new ones for about a month and I have been putting it off.
We all know my girl loves shoes so she wanted about 5 pairs but we settled on these colorful ones. Hopefully they will last through the summer.
When we left there she asked where we were going. We drove for a while and when I was in the turning lane about to turn into the bowling alley, I stopped and asked her if she saw something fun we could do. I snapped some pics of this little scenario.
We took her bowling for the first time on my birthday a few months back and she talks about it a lot. Every time we dive by there she wants to go in. We had a blast. She calls it the "bowling ball game". She isn't as concerned with knocking down the pins as she is with rolling the ball as many times as possible.
Miss Independent wanted to carry the balls by herself.
Then we ate some greasy bowling alley food for lunch. It was awful and awesome at the same time.
After that it was getting close to nap time but I had another place I wanted to take her. When we pulled in the parking lot I told her we were going to get her toenails painted by a professional. She kept saying, "Mommy?" I was like no. This is where Mommy goes to get her toenails painted. Oh! I wasn't sure how she would do. She is a total wiggle worm when I paint her nails. I didn't want to do the whole pedicure the first time. I wanted to see how it went first. It went well. She picked out orange first but at the last minute she changed her mind to neon pink. She has showed them off to anyone that will look. We will definitely be doing this again when I get home.
We ended the day with family movie night, her pick. All day she said she wanted to watch Froz.en. But, my indecisive little thing, changed her mind to The Littl.e Mer.maid at the last minute. Like riiiight when Frozen got started. Ha!
It was a great day. At one point she told me that she really liked girl's day and wanted to do it again. I can't wait to get back so we can plan another girl's day together!
