What a fun day! It started with a bath, which is always a great way to start the day. Then before I knew it, there were grandparents all over the place around here...Great Grandpa Charlie came to play and brought along some treats from the Spring Valley bakery. He wears a fascinating watch and has a very delicious pointer finger. Must be from all that digging in his garden.
Gramma Jill and Grampa Larry came to play and brought along some treats (i.e. big people lunch) from Panera. Grampa Larry showed me that he can clap his hands just like me. That will definitely help keep him occupied during retirement! Gramma Jill was very snuggly. She fed me lunch and changed my diaper several times. She's a champ at dirty diapers. She pretends they smell like roses. Thanks gramma!
Grandpa Dave also came to play and brought his great laugh and cool BoDeans tshirt (he was on his way to Rochester to rock out). He was funny, as usual. I like to giggle at his jokes.
After successfully avoiding a nap for most of the day, I crashed as the grand ones left and woke up just in time for supper. Then I took mommy and daddy down to the "river" to feed the ducks. Unfortunately some big, mean geese (daddy calls them worse names) chased away all the cute duckies and stole our bread. I'd had enough and decided it was time to go home and play in the yard. Hopefully some day I'll get a swing set or something. Playing in the grass is fun, but really folks...let's add a little excitement around here.

Sore booty
Miles has had some extra messy diapers lately...a very painful part of the teething process, as his bottom can't handle the poo. Fortunately Miles' girlfriend Claire had some extra cornstarch in her cupboard -- her mommy is MUCH more prepared for these kinds of situations! The traditional Butt Paste (that's what it's called, folks) isn't meeting the needs of Miles' little cheeks, so we're going for good ol' pure cornstarch. Miles thought it was fun getting a little dusting of the white stuff, and thought it was even more fun getting to play naked all evening. Oh, the joys that come with the hardships in life!
Another bright spot in Miles' day was getting this great homemade stool from his Great Uncle Don and Great Aunt Janet (i.e. Uncle Duck and Aunt Daisy). They are a talented duo! Miles got to play with Hannah's stool (ooh, that sounds bad) in June when everyone was here visiting. He loved it, so needless to say he was overcome with happiness at the arrival of his own stool this afternoon. YAY!!
Here's a flashback to the fun with Hannah's stool...
