Tallahassee

On Friday, me, my daughter and boyfriends family left for our trip to Tallahassee. I was a bit skeptical about taking my daughter on her first road trip. When I found out that we would be leaving in the evening it eased my worries. My daughter is seven-months-old now and she sleeps through the night, her average bedtime is 8 p.m. Therefore, I knew I would not have to worry about her getting antsy on her first road trip. We got on the road around 9 p.m. and surprisingly Aniyah was still awake. I started to get worried and began thinking that the drive may be to much for her to handle. A short time after my daughter was fast asleep. We made a stop just before Gainesville and all the movement and lights from the doors opening woke her up. As soon as we got back on the road she went back to sleep and so did I. Before you know it we were on Interstate-10, ten miles out of Tallahassee.

Roadtrip

My boyfriend is very busy with school and football so he does not have the time to visit me and Aniyah as much as he would like to. He came up with this idea for me to take her to Tallahassee to see him on Friday. Any other time I would have jumped in my car and took turnpike north until I arrived in Tallahassee, but with a baby things are not as easy. I would have to worry about the time I would leave so that she would not wake up and be to fussy and make sure I pack everything she needs. He later told me that his mother would be driving up on Friday as well and told me to ride with her. Although the drive is still going to be long with a baby I preferred that idea. I guess I will have to start packing early because I am getting ready to take my daughter on her first road trip.

Girls Day

On April 8, I turned twenty-three years old and my daughter turned 7 months old. Seeing as though she is still a baby, we could not do anything to adventurous. Instead, we enjoyed a mother-daughter day by shopping at Aventura Mall followed by Pembroke Lakes Mall. When we returned to my house my best friend came over with balloons and a birthday cake. She sang happy birthday to me and Aniyah and we enjoyed a slice of cake. My baby was exhausted from our long shopping date that she fell asleep soon after. Since she sleeps through the night now I don't mind asking my mom to babysit while I enjoy a night out with my friends. My best friend and I began to get dressed for our dinner date with some of my other close friends at P.F. Chang's. This was not just an ordinary night for me, this was my first night going to the club since last year march before I had my baby. I was extremely excited to be enjoying the club scene once again. But I was not surprised to find out that not much had changed.
