Here’s Tom at the Farmer’s Market last Saturday….We had to make it Priority One to stop by the coffee tent to get daddy-o a cup o’ joe (note the balled up canvas bag in Tom’s hand that is still empty!)!
And, most mornings, he makes coffee at home, right? So, of course, little Dylan knows all about coffee — he makes it with daddy pretty often (sometimes twice a day!)…he knows we have to scoop the beans out of the airtight jar first. Then, we grind the beans. While all this is happening, we’ve got water coming to a boil in the kettle….He will point to each step to let you know what you have to do!
So, I guess we shouldn’ t have been surprised when he tried to say coffee during this evening’s coffee prep. It came out as “cah-ee”, but he repeated it later on when we asked him to say it!
Good job, Dylan, good job…! Note, however, that this horoscope does not mention screeching when said deepest longings are not immediately realized!
Thanks again for the fun, Rob Brezsny!
Dylan got 20 Reading Dollars for all the books he had read to him and he cashed in his meal ticket for a yummy pina colada popsicle (it was vegan!)!
He also blew bubbles, watched a magician, drew with some sidewalk chalk, and decorated his very own secret identity box.
This past week, he surprised me by instantly signing “apple” back to me after I pointed one out to him on a box of Teddy Puffs.
He’s improving his spoon feeding skills and he blows on his food to cool it down.
Tom and I ran the 6-mile Wharf to Wharf while Dylan enjoyed painting at Heather and Assaf’s house.
He is really diggin’ scribbling these days!
Cindy brought Jason, Tyler, Jason’s friend Evan and my mom down to Santa Cruz for a day at the beach.
It was another opportunity for Dylan to wear that cute little sun romper of his!
As always, much fun was had by all.
Wow, Dylan is still at 6 teeth, but lookit how they fill up that little mouth of his!
This past Sunday, Tom and I were crazy enough to go out there and do that Jungle Run despite the fact that we’d done nearly zero training since the Santa Cruz Half three months ago!
Christina was kind enough to watch Dylan and take all of these cute pictures, including this one of Dylan being so sweet with this creepy doll!
He really is a sweet little fella. Today, we met Benjamin and another mommy with whom we might do a little nanny-share time and he tried feeding Benjamin some of his seitan!
Dylan’s repertoire of signs now includes “chicken”, “drink” and definitely “sleepy” (which he signed several times as clear as day after we got home from Assaf’s birthday dinner). His new favorite sign is “cooking!”
