Drew goes to the the barn...

Drew and I went on an adventure this morning to the barn. This was his first chance to see real animals instead of the ones in his picture books. Dan showed us around and we got to see chickens, goats, barn cats and horses. Despite the bitter cold, he had a great time. He would still be chasing the goats now if we let him. And those cats were super friendly, unlike the ones he lives with.

...and the horse you road in on.

A Relaxing Lunch Out

There is nothing relaxing about eating out with a 9mnth old. We went to Chili's, because i was hankering for a cheeseburger. Drew was very well behaved, didn't make much noise and was cute as always, but there was nothing relaxing about it. Before we got food he entertained himself with those little cardboard coasters, in this case, Sam Adams. Then the food came and immediately he reached for my plate (no one said he's not bright). So Erika gave him a Zwiback (as seen in the video) but that didn't last long. He started to let us know vocally that he wanted more than dried toast. So we started give him pieces of our food. From my plate, mushed french fries and from Erikas small pieces of a cheese quesadilla. He LOVED it, but it was no different than if we ate at home. And it was even more stressful because if he starts loudly expressing his deisre for more food, which he is skilled at, its fine and cute at home, but in a restaurant thats not cool.

So, in the future; Drew stays home, we go out. Grammie, you are on notice.

More that you won't see on that 'other' site!

Drew and I spent most of the day together as Erika was out driving in her new car, and to a crop. So while I had the opportunity, I took some pictures of the Drewbee, only to be seen on this blog.
