Ellicott City, Sydney Passes Out, Random Cuteness

On our last day, I thought "what do I want to see the most before I leave?" and came up with Ellicott City. I never went there too often when we lived in MD, but I really loved that town. Plus, it's the sight of me and Andy's 2nd date, which is SO memorable. Sitting in that old, old restaurant with brick walls, watching the snow gently fall outside while we ate next to the fire place. It was so peaceful.

We didn't get out because alot of the shops said "CLOSED" and I didnt want to risk waking Kelli up and dragging the stroller around for nothing. So I didn't get too many good pictures. President Lincoln's assassin (John Wilkes Boothe) was an actor before he quit his day job, and acted in the drama house in Ellicott City in his prime.


Then we stopped at Uno's ONCE MORE because it was the best gluten free pizza I have EVER had. So delicious.

Kelli was Miss Chatterbox the entire time.

Then we went to see Mona one last time (didn't get pictures there) and Sydney fell asleep on the way home. (hotel = home). She fell asleep holding her "goodie bags" from Mona.

I tried to wake her up when we got to Andy's office, but she just flapped her arm down and began snoring LOL.

I called her name a few times and she just opened her eyes and then closed them again.

Yay! We're home! And on our agenda is transitioning Kelli into her crib. She made it almost 4 hours the first night, and I could have put her back. Its harder on ME I think. But look at this cuteness!

I propped her up on a pillow because she is super congested.

I decided to document this. This is the door to Sydney's playroom. As you can see, she has posted warning signs on there. The bottom is a picture of Roman (a "meanie boy" in her class). Obviously stating that this room is for Gramma & Sydney only... No Romans allowed. Then above it is a do-over sign, where she drew pictures of Roman AND Maddox... who is Roman's friend and also another "meanie boy". Look how she tried to spell Maddox's name!! LOL "Madiduik"... seems like she was trying to sound it out.

On school days, I will walk by her room and be sad about the silence in our house. I really miss her while she's at school. Then she comes home and I remember why I should enjoy the silence.


Okay! One more time!! AWWWWWWWWW!
