Swim Swam Swum

Ajax has now rolled over twice, but refuses to do so when I have the camera.  I’ll keep trying to document this, however, I have no proof of his achievement.

Yesterday we headed out to my parents house in Brooklyn.  My mom, Dave, Ajax, and I then ran into Jackson and I was finally able to do a little shopping (yea!).  I now have a few new shirts for work and a bag that I totally needed.  There were also a few of my cousins out (with little kids of their own), so we had a full house.  Ajax refused to nap and instead just wanted to watch all his cousins run around.  This lead to a very cranky baby who got way overtired and over stimulated (as the other kids kept trying to hold him and make him laugh, which was fine, but after a few hours Ajax just had this glazed look to his face).  I also got to play with the horses and walk some of the kids around on Frannie (my mom’s horse), which was a ton of fun as I haven’t spent any time with the horses since before I was pregnant.

We got home late last night and today we tried to get Ajax caught up on his sleep, so we only did a little running in the morning and hung out at home for the rest of the day.  I had Dave fill up the baby pool in the morning (as it was in the 100s with the heat index) and took Ajax for a swim in the afternoon.  He hated it and screamed throughout the ordeal.  I don’t think this kid likes water… guess he takes after Dave, I love the water.

He didn't mind hanging around in his baby speedo.

He did seem to mind when I had him sit in the water.  After that he was done with the pool.
