Our Atlanta Vacation

I absolutely love traveling. I haven't been able to travel as much as I'd like however in the past few years that has started to change. So not what I wanted this blog to be about. So let me start there.

This picture was taken during our first trip to Atlanta. We went to Zoo Atlanta and much like the Louisville Zoo, Zboo loves the petting zoo. I thought this picture was especially cute because well, look at it. Z would literally kneel down to each and every animal talking to them as she pet them. When the other little girl came to the pig it was like they had their own discussion going about pigs, petting zoos or something. Z even said bye as she walked over to her next animal.

I love my child and can brag on her for days and days. She's an incredible human being and brings me joy even during the tantrums.

We also went to the World of Coca-Cola Museum and the Georgia Aquarium which I will post pics as time allows. Also I'll discreetly talk about why we went to visit Atlanta and will do again.

Co-sleeping...Have I Been Replaced?

Today we had to go get the car checked right when a bad storm was passing through the area. Z had a good time running around while I chased her. When we got home she ran into her "cave" and played for a few minutes. Once she became quiet I knew she was in her chair sleeping. Apparently the bed was a better choice. This balloon is apparently her new bff...for the moment.

I've been slowly trying to break myself from co-sleeping. I'm completely undisciplined and know it has to happen someday. She's been a good cuddle buddy except when she kicks me in the face. Lately she's been getting under the blanket with me to let me know it's bedtime. How do you break yourself from that? She has slept in her own bed occasionally and stayed until morning. It's all me, I admit. I have a king size bed all to myself and who else better to share with than the sweetest sweet pea I know. My goal is to be broken of this habit before we move next year. Wish me luck!
