Homecoming Happenings

Well Myla had another first today.  It was her first homecoming parade.  I was a little bit confused at first because I wanted to know if there was a baseball game after the parade, but mommy said today was homecoming and there would be a football game.  I am so used to seeing parades in Cincinnati on Opening Day that I just figured we'd go to a baseball game afterwards.
Game or not, it was a great morning.  Mommy and me and Myla went to the parade!!  I rode to a great spot to watch everything with my Grandma and Pa and mommy walked there pushing Myla in the stroller.  We couldn't believe that it was so hot for a homecoming, but we were all able to wear short sleeves and shorts!
Once the parade started we saw all kinds of craziness!!  Bands, Charlie the Cardinal, lots of floats and lots of super heroes (since that was the theme this year).  We even saw some great friends from church who were walking in the parade!  It was a lot of fun but it was sure hot.  I got really good at waving at the floats so they'd throw me candy.  You wouldn't believe all the candy I got!!  Myla did a great job, too.  She sat outside for a bit and then she sat in her stroller.  She made it through about half of the parade before she finally just fell asleep.  Daddy had a small break from work so he even walked down to watch some of the parade with us!
When the parade was over we went to meet Uncle Lawrence, Aunt Sara and the boys for lunch.  It was so good to see my cousins because it has been a while!  After lunch we headed to Grandpa Max's house because today is his birthday!!  We visited for a while and made sure he knew we were so glad it was his special day.  We stayed until Myla was ready to go take a nap. 
Me and mommy and Myla came home.  Myla took a nap.  I pretended to take a nap, but at least I stayed in my bed instead of playing around on the floor.  Then there were baths to be had, dinner to eat, cleaning up books and toys, a bit of playing to do and finally it is bed time!  Since I didn't have my nap today I am pretty beat!!
