Elmo

Ajax’s new favorite thing right now is Elmo.  Although he’s not into watching Sesame Street yet (actually, he’s not into watching TV at all), he has a few books with Elmo and he is obsessed.  He’ll stand around saying, Elmo? Elmo?  And then will point out Elmo on all the pages of his book.  Ernie is a close second.   Ajax has also been saying, hi guys.  Which I just think is so cute.

We’re currently getting ready for our first official family vacation (so I apologize in advance that there will be no updates for next week).  One of the greatest things I remember doing as a kid was going on family vacations.  Our family would go someplace big every summer – California, Washington, Disney World.  We always had so much fun.  Dave and I want Ajax to experience the same thing.

Dave and I each took a week off work (the first for Dave since Ajax was born), and we’re headed up north to Mackinaw City, which is at the very northern tip of Michigan before jumping the bridge to the U.P.  We are leaving on Sunday and will stay in Mackinaw until Wednesday and then we are heading over to Dave’s parents house.  Dave, his mom, and I are signed up to take a class and then we’ll be home on Saturday and then the Zombie Walk is on Sunday.

I made tortilla soup and Ajax thought it was the best thing ever.
