Outdoor Living

A delicious dinner on the back porch. Followed by the boys playing in the yard, which they did much of the day because there was finally no rain.
Ben actually ate meat tonight. He's been chewing it up and spitting it out lately. Noah used to do that too. I think it might have something to do with getting his molars. Jakob didn't really want to eat more than just bread and carrots but he forced down the chicken, and Noah ate everything without complaining. Keely enjoyed the few tasty morsels she was given too.

Ben was having issues with an itchy diaper (time for potty training?) But a pre-bedtime bath revealed that it was Noah who ended up with a tick! EWWW! Steve got it out with only one try. Keely wishes that I was that good since it took 3 of us to hold her down and 10-15 minutes to get hers out in Virginia.

A good thing about Steve's trip back to Lodi was the vino he was able to bring back with him. We had a toast to the late Robert Mondavi, founder of Woodbridge winery, who passed away last week at age 94.
