We heard JH on the baby monitor at about 6:30 AM saying "wet" "wet" so Da Da went in and luckily the wet didn't make it to the sheets. After a quick diaper change, Da Da put him in bed with us for about 30 minutes. He was really good and didn't talk or fuss but it's hard to go back to sleep when you know someone is looking at you. He was laying there looking from side to side so I finally turned over and asked if he wanted to go watch cartoons. He said in a very sweet low voice, "watch cartoons".
We had breakfast and put JH in his room (with baby gate) to watch Elmo while Da Da and Daddy finished painting one more section of the basement floor. It's almost tricycle ready!!!
After a walk to town and an attempt to go to the park (closed for an unknown reason), we all had lunch and naps.
This afternoon we went to Janine and Michael's for a BBQ. Michael's parents are in town so this was a way for those of us that have not met them to meet them. They are lovely people and Jonathan and I enjoyed meeting them very much. Rick and Michael have a long history so Rick has known them for years.
I was worried that 10+ people might be too much stimulation as it was an adult party. He was pretty good and had his new girlfriend Janine to hang on. Seriously, I have not seen him take to someone so quickly and be so attached. He just lights-up when she is holding him or playing with him. He was running around like he was at home and everyone was so sweet and attentive to him.
We stopped at the park on the way home to help burn off energy and they opened the water park section. JH stood at the fence watching all the kids playing in the water so we felt guilty and distracted him so we could leave. Next time we will have his a swimsuit and a towel in the car.
It was a good day! We're all looking forward to seeing Aunt Jo Jo next weekend in Chicago. Daddy and Da Da are already planning a night out (so needed) for dinner and drinks :-)
