My parent’s picked up Ajax from the babysitters on Friday, which gave Dave and I the opportunity to have a nice date night for Dave’s 31st birthday. My parent’s said that Ajax did wonderful for them; however, when they were driving out to the farm Ajax said, I want to go home and I want you (grandma) and grandpa to come to my house. After some discussion Ajax finally agreed that he did in fact want to go out to their house.
Dave and I headed out to the farm Saturday morning and helped my parents take down a large tree, about 35 feet. We planned to take down a second but of course the chain saw died. On Sunday we all worked together and stained the barn’s massive porch.
Ajax of course had a ton of fun at his grandparents and got to spend some quality time with my sister who is still home from Alaska. Emily took him on multiple Mule rides and did some general exploring. My parent’s also got two new barn kittens and Ajax had fun playing with them and chasing them around. On the drive home on Sunday he was a bit of a pistol (as he was so overtired) and kept demanding that Dave and I stop talking with each other and only talk to him. He now feels slighted whenever you engage in a conversation that does not directly include him.
