What Eating Is Like Now

Reid's eating is great fun now, and he is really excellent with the spoons and bowls now. Using plates still devolves into a lot of potential throwing, but the bowls have become Reid's true dining forte. Tonight we had cajun dirty rice. Reid likes the spice foods.

Apparently today at daycare, Reid had chocolate milk. He was bouncing off the walls. It was really something to see. Like a coiled spring. It started with our now-traditional post-daycare time in the front yard. This is some great stuff, but I really need to bring a camera out (Reid won't let me pick him up and take him inside to grab the camera). He decided that today was the today, after a lot of practice, to take every single piece of gravel from the driveway to the yard. This will be great when I start mowing the grass again. Not that I'll be doing that anytime soon.

Here is a shot from Reid's Nonni's camera phone of him on the train at Westmoreland Mall in Greensburg, Pa. He went on once with me (and I almost needed the jaws of life to get out of the thing after the ride was over) and twice more by himself. Then, as I mentioned yesterday, he cried when we had to leave.
