It’s 2 pm and that means it’s nap time in our home. All is quiet. Ajax fell right asleep as we’ve had a very busy morning.
Ajax slept in until 7:30 this morning (yay!) and woke up in such a good mood. We kicked it around the house till about 8:30 or so and then set off. We had breakfast at our favorite Coney Island. We hadn’t been there in quite a while and the waitress was surprised at how big Ajax was (we always seem to have the same waitress, which is nice). Ajax was great at the restaurant and ate a ton. He also inadvertently got chocolate milk with his meal, even though I had asked for white. I was going to send it back, but Dave said, let him have it. Ajax was polite and talked to the other patrons and even gave them high-fives as we left.
We then hit up Target and the Library (Ajax loves the library, especially all the different puzzles). Ajax was again wonderful at each stop. We then hit up Toys-R-Us. Dave and I want to get Ajax a tricycle for his birthday, but we were unsure what size to buy for him. I picked out the classic radio flyer on Amazon (with the little bell and streamers- so cute), but the comments all indicated that the 12 inch trike was just way too big for most 2 year olds. I was able to find a 10 inch trike, but just wasn’t sure which one to get him. So, this is why we stopped at TRU, to check out bikes. The 12 inch bike was indeed way too big for Ajax and I’m glad he got to try out some different styles of bikes. I think we’re going to go with a 10 inch tricycle, which he should grow into nicely over the summer.
We also did a stop at the grocery store and dollar store, and then made it home around 1 pm. Again, Ajax did wonderful throughout all our stops, to the point where Dave and I were just amazed. After we got home Ajax had some lunch, helped me dump some ingredients into the bread maker and played before crashing.
The weather is now turning cold and I think we may get some snow before the day is through. I have been dreaming about spring and summer, but I realize we still have a few more storms before that comes.
Also, my dad was nice enough to come into town on Friday to babysit Ajax for us, thank you dad! Ajax had a great time.
