Yes, you love the swing! For some reason it was making you giggle, even more than usual. We went with it, and giggled along.
This weekend we hung out in the neighborhood; it was great to have the bonus day to spend as a family. On Saturday we picked up our CSA vegetables and I whipped up some summer minestrone soup at the end of the day. Also our street was closed for a block party with a waterslide for the kids and some shared food for the adults. You helped us meet some neighbors by "borrowing" a toy from a few different stoops--you borrowed a ball from one house and a stroller from another. Don't worry, we returned all of it.
On Sunday we went to a farmer's market, and then took you out to the Park towards the end of the day. And today we looked for a picnic that our friends had invited to...amidst the thousands of people sunning and relaxing in picnic park, we didn't find them. Good news was you didn't seem to mind as long as we had grapes for you and you could meet some nearby babies and try their toys.
We walked home; you actually walked about two blocks on your own. You get pretty focused on the goal, "Home, home!" On the way home we ran into little Lozen and her parents Mara and Tracy, who were in our birthing class. You said hello, but kept walking towards home.
We got home and briefly stopped by the next-door neighbors BBQ. We couldn't stay, since you would have knocked over the beer bottles and other stuff. But you did get to meet their cat, who you were pretty excited about. Oh, and another neighbor has a little pug puppy that you met today too. But you haven't really learned to defend yourself, so the pug puppy almost chewed on your nose. We're working on teaching you how to get along with many different creatures, lots to learn.
