Newport Washout

So glad that Weather.com said that Wednesday through Sunday was going to be sunny and warm with a 30% chance of showers. How about an all day soaking yesterday where you get drenched just going from the car to the restaurant across the street and your feet are all wet from the puddles you had to hop through? No beach, no pool, no playground. We couldn't even walk around town it was rainingn so hard. Rich did a run with drizzle but the rain intensity just increased from then and we drove to go out to lunch and got soaked. Luckily next door was a really high end children's store with lots of "samples" out for Savannah to play with. I also got them some cute things and a gift I needed. Then we went across the street (got soaked again) to CVS and the Natural Food Store and then to Starbucks (at least it is dry in there). We went back to the room and just hung out so Seth could nap and showered and got ready for dinner. We again went across the street but the rain had stopped and the skies were clearing out. We had a great dinner at the historic Newport Inn. For the first time Savannah went potty at the restaurant! We brought the portable Cushie Tushie. Whoo Hoo! She is doing awesome at the hotel and telling us more and more! She is really getting the hang of the potty thing. So proud of her! She loves her Everyone Poops book that was written by a Japanese author and orginally published in Tokyo in 1977! The trivia you discover while sitting the bathroom with your child!

Today is Daddy's birthday so he is heading out for a bike ride and then we are beach bound! Yeah! Can't wait to have some outdoor fun. This is Savannah in the a.m. As soon as I got out of bed she moved to the couch and slept until 12:20 p.m. Boppy's are not just for babies. We had to get her one of her own and she sleeps on it.
