Thankfully my medicine helped to get my cold under control so we could have a crazy week of travel for the National Farm Machinery Show.
Ben left Monday to help set up and get ready for the show to actually start on Wednesday.
I went up Tuesday afternoon because I had a Board of Director's meeting and mom and dad kept Mallory.
I just stayed up there in Louisville with Ben and walked the show for work on Wednesday to see candidates and clients.
I came home Wednesday night, got stuff packed up because Bean and I were heading back to Louisville on Thursday night after work.
I had a day in the office on Thursday and then Bean and I headed out after work, Tucker was already still at the Pet Resort, I dropped him off Tuesday.
Friday Bean and I walked around the show and Mom and Dad got there around lunchtime, so we then spent the afternoon walking around together and she finally had enough and slept in her stroller!
We then headed back to the hotel for a quick rest to then catch up with Mom and Dad to go out to dinner for Mom's Birthday. Since our hotel didn't have a swimming pool, we were taking our stuff to Mom and Dad's so Mallory and I could swim there after dinner. Of course she loved that, she's such a little water bug!
She was cracking me up because all she could talk about was going to the pool and going to the farm show to see "daddy's friends" aka co-workers. She just thought they were great : )
Saturday Mallory and I opted to skip out on the Farm Show again and we headed out to the Science Museum. We used to go as a kid while at the farm show and I wanted to take Mallory too. They have one big section that is really geared for 7 and under and she loved it. They had a big water table and I wasn't sure I was going to get her out of that section! So we played around in that area until it was time to try the Imax show about Butterflies. I thought "maybe" she would like it and want to watch since it was such a big screen. We made it about half way through. Oh well. Then back to the rest of the museum to run around and 1 last stop at the under 7 area again. Needless to say, we will be going back there again soon!
Then it was off to Oxmoor Mall so we could have lunch at California Pizza Kitchen and I could go to Sephora and Bean could go to Club Tabby. Club Tabby is this store we found last year that is like a salon/boutique/dress up place for little girls. So we found some cute tutu's on sale for $5 each and a tiara and necklace, since I didn't get her a necklace for Valentines' that's all I heard about was wanting a necklace! By the time we did all that and headed back to the hotel it was almost 5 pm and Bean had finally fallen asleep in her car seat so we went back to the hotel to nap while Ben finished up the show and then started to tear down.
Sunday morning we headed back home, overall a good show. Ben went and got Tucker on the way back and I stopped at the grocery and then we pretty much did nothing but rest the remainder of Sunday!!
On my way to Louisville on Tuesday I stopped off at one of the Private Schools in Hopkinsville that has preschool. It's the same one Stefanie's daughter goes to and several other friends kids. There are no options for preschool in Todd County, which is sad. Well there is but only for the very low income, otherwise you can't even go to the public school preschool. So we have to look at surrounding areas for preschool. I like what I saw, we turned in our application and will go to the new parent open house in mid March, so hopefully this will be good for her. And we can do some carpooling with Stefanie as well since it is like 25 miles away.
