An Afternoon Playdate!

Today Graham and I went over to visit with our friends Amy and Alexandra. Not only did Graham get to play with Alex, but also Copper the da da ("da da" is the correct pronunciation for "dog" according to Graham), and two kitties that Graham "roared" at a few times. We work very hard on our animal sounds and he's definitely got the roaring for a lion down. I think he saw the cats and thought they were very nice, tame lions! They're both in the cat family, so I'll give him credit! When it was time for lunch, Alex was kind enough to allow Graham to use her highchair to eat too! Of course no meal is complete without Graham allowing at least a few pieces of food to hit the floor and this made Copper one happy dog!

These two seem deep in thought - using teamwork, they're working very hard to figure out the shape sorter!

As if you couldn't tell from the following pictures, we had spaghetti at our house for dinner tonight. I thought it would be easier for Graham to eat his pasta if I piled it into a bowl for him but Graham does NOT have a good track record with plates and bowls-they're nothing but toys to throw for him. Still, I wanted to try...I used his bowl with a suction, and about 5 seconds after he was seated, the entire bowl was overturned and he began laughing. Someone really needs to come up with child-proof suction cup dishes, because Gerber just isn't cutting it in our house! I had a feeling this would be one messy meal so we Graham ate dinner in his diaper and a bib. Even with the lack of clothes, the mess was unbelievable!
