We had a very nice 4th of July yesterday! Even though the weather brought the coldest Independence Day I ever remember experiencing, we got to spend time with some good friends and each other. We also ate lots of yummy food! Isn't that the hallmark of every truly good holiday?
In other news,
lately, Ian's been celebrating every single meal with
his own toast. Sometime early in the meal, he lifts
his sippy cup and says, "Cheers", eagerly expecting
us to follow suit...which, of course, we do. It's
become a fun family ritual at any meal. We have no
idea where he got it from! He may have seen us do it
once or twice, but we very rarely say "Cheers" when
we toast, so who knows! At any rate, it's fun.
Also, he loves to
help water the miniature garden we put out this year
of one cherry tomato plant and three basil plants. He
lugs the watering can across the yard, and
painstakingly pours water on our thirsty plants. He's
always so proud of himself when he's done, and we
usually have to fill the watering can another two or
three times before he's satisfied. So cute.
