DINNER 151: Wednesday, May 31, 2006

I had my GARDE MANGER class this evening, so I went directly to Cincinnati State from work. We worked on a few items tonight since the food order was yet again messed up. As a result, we didn’t have the ingredients we needed for the…

DINNER 152: Thursday, June 1, 2006

Another quiet night at home tonight — how nice!

Buster commando crawling toward Wendy.Wendy & I went back to Wal-Mart to get a baby gate for Buster since he’s now more mobile (see yesterday’s story). We’ll put the baby gate at the top of the steps when we’re upstairs and at the top of the basement steps when we’re downstairs. That way, Buster can have free run of the floor we’re on, though it seems that he likes two places best (maybe not in this order): a> by us in his cuddle cup or b> by food. We worry a bit for anyone observing our trash — this week it features the boxes for a playpen and a baby gate!

Tonight, for the first time, he ventured off the carpet runner we’ve got in our family room and onto the hardwood floor and then into the tiled kitchen. He did pretty well on the smooth surfaces. I’d estimate that he’s moving at about 60% on carpet, about 55% on grass, and about 50% on tiles or the hardwood.

We stopped by Penn Station for dinner on the way home from Wal-Mart.

Buster in bed

We put Buster into bed with us before ‘lights out’ most nights. He lays there silently, tail wagging gently, hoping that we’ll forget he’s there and fall asleep with him between us. SO CUTE!
