August woke up early again, so this time both Carly and I took him out for an early walk. We walked over to the Chelan Artisan Bakery where we each got an iced latte and a pastry. We then walked back to a bench by the flag pole in Riverwalk Park and ate them. August played there for awhile but eventually saw all the pipes outside the hardware store across the street and wanted to walk that way. So we went over and played in the drinking fountain by the bathrooms before heading down to the pipe/bridge area and letting him run around on the bridge.
We walked around the park and briefly went to the water area at the ranger station to get in the water. August wasn’t interested though so we kept going.
Back home he played in the water in the bath tub and started using the little green cup to drink water from the faucet. He also spent a lot of time playing outside with Carly and my parents. He is apparently making noises when pushing the truck around, but I haven’t heard it yet.
After his nap we found out that Chuck and Cherie were still quite a ways away. So we decided to go over to the city park. But when we got there the lot was full. So we went to Safeway and bought a few things, then headed home.
Chuck and Cherie showed up and brought mac and cheese and salad for dinner. We hung out until dinner and August did a good job with all the foods.
After dinner we all drive over to Lakeview Drive-in and everyone else got ice cream. August got to taste most of them, but didn’t go crazy. A good first experience for ice cream. He liked walking around with me (I didn’t have ice cream) and in particular he loved the cooling fans on the other side of the building. One was huge.
We drove home and mainly hung out on the deck. Carly is taking August for a bath every day now and he loves it. Before bed I was reading him One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish by Dr. Seuss and we were calling the “little fish” a baby. He then started calling everything ‘baby’ in a funny voice.
