Thank You, Trolleys, Red Umbrellas & Bumblebees

Avery has a love for all things on wheels. We have been looking for bikes for Walker, so have visited shops around town. One of the bike shops sits on a trolley route. Avery goes nutty when he knows we might visit that shop and requests more, "Muy trolleys! See trolleys! Trolleys zooming by!" It's very exciting.
Today, when we left the bike store, it started to rain. More excitement, when Avery was allowed to hold the umbrella.



Later in the day, while Walker was at another cycle store, we saw a bee flying inside a storefront window. He kept saying, "Thank you! Thank you, bumblebee."

I am not sure why he was thanking the bee, but I started thinking. I feel like he was thanking the bumblebee just for being in that window, at that time, so that he could be entertained and happy. He'd probably thank the trolley and the umbrella, too, if they were alive.

Galloping and Pumpkin Rides

Updates: 1. Avery has learned how to gallop. He calls it skipping, and he has been doing it all around the living room, street, park, store... since yesterday afternoon. Everywhere. 2. Avery asked Walker, "What alphabet does your name begin with?" 3. I asked Avery what we are going to do tomorrow, and he said, "We are going to get some hay and ride on a pumpkin!" He's very excited, although he seems to have it switched around a bit.

If you were to try a new food every three days for about a year, don't you think you'd get to the point where you had to be really creative to find something new? With combinations of ingredients, knowing that you have tried one dish, you would think that you'd exhaust the possibilities. Well, we've been new foods like this for some time now, and every time I go to the grocery or Farmer's Market, I come back with something new for Avery. Ritz crackers were introduced today! Chive cream cheese was on the menu a few days ago. This evening, we combined the two for Ritz cracker and chive cream cheese fiesta. Avery hogged down seven crackers piled high with cream cheese, had a huge piece of extra sharp cheddar, and some berry applesauce. This was all washed down with a huge bottle of organic whole milk, which friend Jeanna says, "tastes like fresh cut grass and ice cream." I am going to try to make a list of Avery's favorite foods : Veggies -sw...
