Just to remember



Maizie turned three the other day.  
We went to a restaurant of her choosing, Q'Cumbers (which is a buffet kind of a place with a huge salad bar).  This place is across the parking lot from "chuck o cheese-es," so I was kind of surprised.  I think she thinks that she can't go there without Grammy and Grumpy.  Maybe she thinks they live there?
Anyway, after we were totally stuffed from very healthy salad bar and very unhealthy ice cream sundaes, we headed down to Centennial Lake.  We took her presents with us (we got her a Little Einstein toothbrush and a Sesame Street puzzle) and let her pick a spot to sit and open them.
Maybe she remembered from another time, but she said "I want that place with the fountain and the water and the seats and the steps."  I found it right away.  She sort of reminded me of me with that request. 
  
We then opened presents, Grandpa and Nana got her some other stuff and mailed it, and then went to Target where she was allowed to spend a $15 gift card that her long lost great uncle sent.  She picked nothing and everything all at the same time, so we finally guided her towards something for her Little People.  
As I'm typing I realize that there is no point to this, but I'm not going back nor am I going to make up a point, so feel free to stop reading.  I'm going to stop typing.  
Maybe the point is that it was just a special moment that I don't want to forget.  
Yeah, that's the ticket.

Something really cute, though, is that Maizie told me that she was going to be a pink a purple kitty for Halloween.  She also let me know that Iris would be an airplane.

I hope she still likes to go to chuck 0 cheeses, because I think it's fun!
