Drummer Boy

Wow! We had a long, long day away from home today starting with church group. Bubeaner is surprisingly comfortable with everyone and with the building too. He would walk (in his walker) over to several grandmothers and pull on their sleeves to get their attention! Thankfully, they were all thrilled to speak with him instead of being upset.

"Hmm, what is this strange new toy?"

And he traverses the room even more freely now too. Unfortunately, this time he also noticed the open door. He did stop to check if Momma was behind him, but he did not stop when Momma was not around! Bubeaner travelled all the way down the long hallway! Momma was hidding while keeping an eye on him, but he didn't know that! This boy is adventurous.

"Ahh, music to my ears."

Momma was bad today. We stopped at a restaurant to eat after church group since we still needed to run some errands in a neighboring suburb. (A great Mexican restaurant find too!) Momma ordered tortilla soup for both of us. Bubeaner loved the chicken and avocado. He had a little issue when he had the broth. It appears there were jalapeno seed in the broth. He started crying hysterically and pulling his ears. Momma could not figure out what was wrong; eventually he settled down and enjoyed being cuddled by Momma. It wasn't until Momma started eating her (now cold) soup that she discovered the problem. Momma's learned a lesson: when in a new place TASTE the food first. Poor baby!

"Move over Neal Peart! I'm goood!"

At home Bubeaner learned how different items make different sounds. He was hesitant at first but soon got in the swing of things. He was banging away with the spoon and/or his hands. We may learn to regret this in the future, but it was fun playing along with him.
