Just a note to start: today was the second day that Declan had Butternut Squash for breakfast and he does like it. Yay - we're going to get vegetables in this kid yet!!
Declan's social calendar was very busy today. Grandpa Gale came to visit this morning. Declan was napping when Grandpa arrived but he woke up soon after. Big eyes staring at Grandpa when he woke and then smiles. It was a good visit. Declan was in great spirits. He had big smiles for his Grandpa. Showed him how good he can sit up, even righting himself a few times as he tilted. Declan sat on Grandpa's knee and he got lots of kisses.
A little while later Grandma Gale came by for a visit herself. Declan was also very happy to see his Grandma. It really was smiles all around.
Now Declan had quite the unusual visitor in the afternoon. Daddy brought Declan home a new toy - Bear in a Stump. Declan absolutely loved it! Daddy was worried that it might scare little D because it is a puppet but quite the opposite our little man was thrilled with his new buddy. There were repeated squeals of delight and he was reaching for it.
In the early evening Declan's cousins Madison and Nick as well as Nick's girlfriend Jayme were out for dinner and Mommy had a chocolate craving. After sending a text requesting that they bring home dairy milk chocolate they agreed so long as they could have baby time when they got here. Certainly!! So Declan had some time playing with Jayme, Nick and Madison. It started off slowly because that's three people holding and playing with him with Mommy and Daddy at a distance but after a little bit Declan got comfortable and was giggling and squealing with them. Bear in the Stump was involved as was some giant dragon head thing that Nick used to pretend to eat Declan. Also met with squeals of delight.
...and the chocolate bar was yummy.
