2 1/2

Since Lola has turned two, has six new teeth and grew three inches. Now at 2 1/2, I told her that she's growing too fast and that she needs to stop for awhile. I said, "Lola, who told you that you could get bigger?" She said, "I don't know Mama, I think it was Nana."

We spent most of Saturday in Coeur d'alene. Heading to the park, we went to the playground first. I grew up playing here and always was amazed at how enchanted it felt. Lola had fun, but the highlight for her was definitely going to the beach!

We had a late lunch at our favorite Mexican restaurant in CDA, Toro Viejo. As we were walking in, I remembered being there when I was about 12 weeks pregnant with Lola. Eating chips and salsa, I felt her "flutter" for the first time. We tell her that's because we knew she loved Mexican food and she loves that!
