Boxes and Saturdays

Yesterday my mom and sister picked Ajax up from the sitters early and went visiting.  They also made an impromptu stop at the park with the splash park and from the report all ended up soaking wet with no spare clothes, lol.   Dave and Ajax were actually on their own last night as I had a work event last night which didn’t begin till 7 pm.  It was a benefits dinner, Ramadan Unity, and was quite enjoyable.  The long drive home at 10 pm, however, wasn’t so much fun.

Today we worked outside all morning.  Cutting grass, raking, and working in the garden.  I have a ton of tomatoes that I need to can… but right now they’re just sitting in buckets in my back room.   After working we went out to lunch at our favorite Coney Island.  Ajax was incredibly hungry by that time and kept asking every single person who walked by our table for – Pancakes.  As soon as the person walked by, he would say – are they going to get my pancakes?  When the waitress did come Ajax ordered his meal and ended up eating almost an whole order of pancakes!  Dave and I were amazed.

After lunch Dave was nice enough to babysit Ajax while I ran to the mall.  I was in desperate need of some new work clothes.   When I got home, we did dinner and again Ajax ate a ton, having two helpings!  He must be on the verge of a growth spurt.   We went for a walk after dinner.  Ajax insisted on riding in his stroller and talked the entire time.  He’s really into repeating his questions over and over again.  All and all a good day.

My mom bought a new car seat for Ajax, for her car, and Ajax loves the box-

ta da!
