Ajax has been a bit under the weather lately. It seems if it’s not a tooth, then it’s his vaccines, then he’s had a touch of a cold, and now a majorly runny nose. Poor little guy. I’ve also learned that unfortunately there’s not much to be done for a congested baby. I keep thinking, when will you learn to blow your nose? If only you could blow your nose! Because Ajax was so congested today, his nap schedule was off , so our day wasn’t exactly as planned, but that’s ok.
We were up and about pretty early today, Dave cleaned out the gutters and worked outside, while I did laundry, started a stew for dinner, and made some baby food (sweet potatoes- Ajax’s favorite, and cauliflower- which it seems Ajax simply hates). We then headed over to my grandpa Nader’s house as a few of my aunts and cousins were going to be there decorating pumpkins and going trick-or-treating. Well, we got to grandpa’s house, dressed Ajax as a lion, and bam, the fact that he hadn’t napped well all morning/afternoon hit and we were home by 3:30. So no pics of Ajax with his cousins in costumes, but he’s too young to know the difference yet anyways.
My parent’s came over for dinner and to see Ajax. We only had about 8 trick-or-treaters, quite pathetic really. Since we have no sidewalks, we get very few kids, which is a shame, because we sit on the couch and watch out the window, is that a kid? do you see anyone? are they coming to our street?
Overall, a very nice Saturday and a great first Halloween for Ajax.
