Sunny Saturday Fun

We had an amazing day today. Chris had household chores to do at the lake house today. Jamisen and I spent the entire day together. It was a joy! We spent almost 5 hours outside (yes, he had sunscreen on). We walked to the Farmers market, and bought some yummy homemade spinach linguine. We also got orange rhubarb lemonade. I didn't dare give any of it to Jamisen lest he get addicted to sugar in one tiny taste.

Then, we went to the park where Jamisen played with some very big boys. They were probably four or five years old, and they were were irritated to have a little baby hanging out with them. They started kicking dirt close to Jamisen (in his general
direction - that pesky baby infringing on their space!) and I (with a friend on hand to provide back up moral support and lead the way) had to tell them it wasn't safe to kick dirt in Jamisen's direction. It was a momma bear moment.

Jamisen also saw a giant wolf dog at the park, and immediately took off at a fast crawl chasing after it. Thankfully the wolf dog was friendly and allowed Jamisen to squeal, drool and otherwise show delight in the general direction of the dog. But, he wisely stayed a few feet away from the dog and its long teeth.

Jamisen still is not walking. He is showing major signs of being close to it. I'm leaving on a business trip for next few days, and Murphy's Law says that he will undoubtedly walk on his own unassisted while I'm gone.

He loved his first taste of bread pudding. Naturally, it was made with whole wheat grains and blueberries. It was fairly healthy. He also enjoyed his Kale smoothie for breakfast this morning. He very much liked helping me sort his edamame beans for his vegetable snack today. He was quite industrious at the task.
