date night!!


What fantastic weather we're having!! This is why I love fall. Miles has really enjoyed our outside time, especially heading down to the school playground for some slide time. He's made friends with a couple other regulars, and their dogs too. He also discovered the fun of picking up handfuls of mulch/dirt and piling them on the steps. I think he only tried to eat it 5 times.



We had a big first for the family this weekend also... the first non-family babysitter!!! We wanted to go out for Kurt's birthday dinner so I finally called the girl down the street. Another mom had given me her name and we'd met her on our walks a few times. So she came over and we proceeded to tell her how to put him to bed no less than 4 times. And went over the all important How To Work The TV a couple of times too, although she said she did her English homework.

When we got home she said they played for a while. Then well before when we said he'd go to bed he started putting his head down on the floor. She put him in his crib and he waved bye-bye to her. Little guy was ready for bed!! So she had it pretty easy, but he liked her - the next day we'd say "did you have fun with Ali?" and he replied "Ah!" (yes? Ali? I don't know, but it was happy.) I'm sure we'll be calling her again.
