Leaves

We are having a relaxing weekend, getting back into our routine after a week of vacation.   The weather has been so nice outside that we did a bit of yard work on Saturday.  I raked up some leaves and Ajax had a blast running through them.  He also helped bag some of the leaves by picking up one leaf or twig and putting them into the bag.  Ajax also helped by picking some tomatoes from the garden.  It’s surprising that our garden is still producing, but there it is.   My dad came by for a visit on his motorcycle.  As soon as my dad pulled up the driveway Ajax started yelling – motorcycle, grandpa motorcycle. My dad let him sit on the bike and even revved the engine a bit for him, which Ajax just loved.  Tractors and motorcycles, what a little boy.

We also busted out the playdoh for the first time and Ajax loved it, though he did keep licking it.  I kept telling him that it wasn’t food, but he just couldn’t help himself.   I’m not sure who had more fun playing with the playdoh, Dave and I or Ajax.

My mom was also nice enough to babysit on Friday, which allowed Dave and I to have a date night.  We did dinner and movie, and it was a very enjoyable evening.
