Daddy-Daughter Time

Tuesday until Thursday of this week was Daddy-Daughter time in our house. Jennifer and our friend Jenny Rich went on a road-trip and left me and Elisa behind.

We had a lot of fun playing dolls and doing our hair! Reading "Fancy Nancy" for the umpteenth time had me putting sprinkles in a lot of Elisa's food - to accessorize of course!

We went on long walks each day - mainly to the park or to the mall (which is pretty close to our house). Thursday we were out for a 3 hour excursion in the stroller to the local Block Buster, the mall (which included a lengthly play time running around the entire place looking at the flower displays and having a little date - I ordered a little coffee and she had the cheese bread) and then to the park.

She had a lot of fun swinging and running crazy at the park!


We spent a lot of time playing with Elisa's blocks. I would build and she would destroy. I can't wait to reverse the rolls on this little activity!

We watched Baby Einstein movies together. Actually, she would get a little bored after about 2 minutes and the movie would run the next 23 minutes with no one paying attention.

this is the first 2 minutes of a movie!

We played with her new Little People doll house and we finger painted (just once!). Below is a picture of Elisa playing with her Little People doll house. You may as well forget about getting any pictures of the finger painting! Check out this post for pictures of a past experience!


And we read an unbelievable amount of books. I knew that she has a lot of books, but we really got reacquainted with all of them! Lately, she has especially been a fan of the new books she received for her birthday: Fancy Nancy, Dogs, the Napping House, Ten in the Bed, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, etc. Loads of fun!

Although Elisa really missed her Momma, she had a good time with her Daddy. I think it goes without saying that her Daddy had a blast with her! Daddy looks forward to their week together in a couple of months!
