Just a Dad and his Daughter

So...Beck went off and left me with the kid for the weekend. Her and a friend went for a girl's weekend out. It is only from Sat morning until Sun morning.

Ashlee and I went to I-Hop for breakfast and chowed down on some pancakes. Yes, just the two of us went and we had a great time. I don't care if the people sitting around us thought I was odd for having full conversations with a 1 1/2 year old kid. Okay, so maybe it is a little strange to pretend like she knows what I am talking about and answers me back. What's the big deal?

We then went to Best Buy and looked at everything. I was given odd looks from the employees as I left my daughter sitting in the cart and walked around the isle saying "Where is Ashlee? I can't find Ashlee!" while I looked behind boxes and at the ceiling. I would then turn and run at her yelling "There she is! I am going to get her!". She was laughing and screaming so much that I think some people came to see if I was abusing her. What is wrong with a Dad making a fool of himself for the enjoyment of his daughter? Huh? What is wrong with that? Well, back off then! Geez!

Our next stop was Discount Tire so I could get the truck tires balanced and rotated. I was getting sick of the shimmy at about 65-70 mph. It took about an hour and Ashlee was absolutely wonderful!

Once we made it home Ashlee didn't want to eat so I gave her a ride in her wagon then we watched Shrek for awhile. When nap time rolled around she was so worn out that she slept for 3 hours! I had to wake her up.

Breakfast had been such a sucess that I figured that I would give Applebees a try for dinner. That was also a sucess. We had a great time and shared some ice cream after our dinner. Yummy.

She is now sleeping soundly in her bed.

I think it may be time for me to catch some z's.
