Mother’s Day

Well I had my first Mother’s Day and it was great.  Ajax got me beautiful flowers and Dave has offered to take me shopping for new clothes before I return to work. Yea!   On Sunday we had my family and Dave’s family over for a BBQ.  The guys did some yard work, the ladies talked and watched ANTM, and the grandma’s loaded Ajax into his stroller and took him for a walk.  My mother-in-law and two sister-in-laws also came down early on Friday to visit (really to see Ajax, not Dave and I).  They also took him for two nights so that Dave and I could sleep, which was just awesome.  It was wonderful having the whole family over and luckily the weather was great.

Some new things with Ajax.  He is learning and growing more everyday.  He now finds his playmat more entertaining and will watch the lights and objects for longer periods of time.  He will turn toward your voice and try to locate you.  If you place objects in his hand he will hold onto them (though he still cannot control them as he has hit himself in the face with his rattle a few times).  He is making more noises and still likes to stick his tongue out.  He loves it when you talk to him and will stare at you like he’s taking in everything you’re saying.  I have also discovered that he likes the theme song to the Pink Panther.
