On Friday night we went to a BBQ as some friends are in from Boston. I forgot my camera unfortunately, but it was cute watching Ajax interact with their little one, Riley, who is about 6 months older than Ajax. Riley was much more outgoing than Ajax and wanted to be friends immediately, but I’ve noticed that Ajax hangs back a little and observes before opening up. It’s interesting watching his personality coming out and realizing how very similar he is to his father.
We had an exciting day on Saturday. Dave managed to cut the grass (some of it, half our yard is still under water from all the rain we’ve been getting) and I played around in the garden. While we worked Ajax was busy exploring the yard and moving his toys into different areas of the driveway. We have had some interesting weather lately. In the morning it was hot and humid, somewhere in the high 80s, but by late afternoon we noticed the temperature dropping significantly, probably low 70s.
We had family over for dinner as my Grandma Flo and Grandpa Stan are now here from Florida. We had eight adults and one nino in our house, which is quite a house-full for us.
I hit the sack early and left Dave on the couch watching TV. At about 11:30, however, a loud siren woke me up. In my daze I thought Dave had the TV on too loud, but then I realized it was the city’s tornado warning. I stumbled downstairs and Dave and I sat in front of the TV watching the local news and listening to the sirens. We poked our head outside and the sky had a greenish hue with terrible clouds. Our whole neighborhood was awake, but Ajax slept through the whole thing. It amazes me what he’ll sleep through. There were some funnels that touched down, but it was quite a bit west of us.
Ajax wanted to go out and play, but the weather was horrid so I had to say no and he was just so upset.
