Caught Dirty Handed

Solon eats the dirt or just scoops it out and onto the floor.

Hooray.....Gymboree

Solon and I go to a Gymboree class every Thursday. I meant to get some photos of him in action but only got ones of us waiting for the class to begin. He loves crawling through the tubes and this past class he climbed the big foam steps several times...without any help.

Number Nine

I think I have read at least 10 biographies on various members of the Kennedy family, so it was sad to hear about Ted Kennedy passing away. I spent several hours watching CNN and then the funeral mass on Saturday.

Favorite Little Spot

There are a few spots in the house that Solon can always be found. Either this corner in his bedroom where he pets the horse and takes all the books off the shelves. The other places are standing at the ficus tree and eating dirt. And the other place is in the bathroom...banging on the metal garbage can and admiring his reflection in it.

Photo Doesn't Do It Justice

I used the panini press I got for my birthday a couple of times this past week. Monday I made a chicken, mozzarella, tomato, basil and olive oil panini for our dinner. It was incredibly delicious!

Beautiful Orange & Yellow Roses

Sunday was mine and Jay's 18th anniversary of our first date. Crazy! Jay had to go up to work for a few hours but surprised me with these pretty flowers when he got home.

Pulling A Taco Move

Everytime Jay tries to do his push-ups, Taco gets right under his face and starts licking him. Now Solon does something similar. He just parks himself up under Jay's head and just stares up at him. Very cute.
