Golfing Buddy

The past few days have been pretty eventful. Poor Jonny hasn't been golfing in almost a year. He's either too busy or his golf buddies are too busy. I'm usually a buzz kill and don't want to go since I'm terrible, but last week I decided to be a good sport and Molly and I went golfing with him. The plan was to have her take a stroller nap while we golfed. At first we were going to go to Desert Hills, but at the last minute we went to Arroyo Dunes with the thought that she might wake up and want out of the stroller which could be a problem for other golfers. Since Arroyo Dunes doesn't really have other golfer's, it seemed like the better choice for a two year old's first golf outing. This turned out to be the right choice since she did wake up 4 holes in. She had a blast though and since the course was deserted it wasn't a big deal that she was whooping it up.

This was her main mode of transportation between holes.





Unrelated: Earlier that same day, Jonny and Molly spent the morning together. When I got home I saw that Molly's dress was on backwards. The funniest part is that he took her out like that. It doesn't seem too obvious except when you see the back (front) of the dress.

Yesterday we drove up to Phoenix to go to zoo and to see Jonny's uncle Mike and aunt Chris. The Zoo was fun, but a little hotter than I would have liked it to be, especially carting this belly around. The funniest story from the zoo was the scary peacock story. Molly was in her stroller eating some popcorn when one of the wandering peacocks (male of course) that the zoo lets roam free came over looking for a handout. At first Molly was pleased that she had made a new peacock friend but then when he practically had his head in her stroller, she wasn't so sure she wanted to share. When I started to move her and the peacock saw that he wasn't going to get the popcorn he had hoped for, the peacock expressed his discontent with a very loud yelp, right in Molly's ear. That's when she lost it screaming, crying and blubbering that the peacock was scary. simultaneously so sad and so funny. poor thing.
After the zoo, and cleaning off the zoo stink in our room, we headed over to Jonny's uncle and aunt's house. It was fun to see them since it had been a very long time, and Molly had never met them before. She warmed up to them and their house very quickly and was thrilled to play pool and bake pretend cookies with Chris. Even though it was a short visit, it was good to see them and hopefully it won't be as long before we see them again.
