Great day!

Odin had such a good time today.

We left for Story Time at Barnes & Noble about half an hour after Alyssa left for school. He sat in my lap so well behaved and had a Strawberry Frapuccino. He drank it from a straw! His first time using a straw, and he did really good too! It's funny because we can't get him to drink from a bottle or sippy cup or anything, but he took the straw perfect!

After story time, we went over to the train set and he played with a bunch of kids for a long time. Then we walked over to the mall and played in the play-place there with some other kids for a while. He loved the slide; I kept picking it up and sliding him down it and I've never seen him laugh so much! He crawled around and had such a great time.

Then we took the bus home and he napped for a while so I could clean up and practice guitar a bit, but when he woke up he had a nice meal and played. Then we walked to meet Alyssa and he was so happy.

All day long, every time he sat in my lap or I held him, he didn't squirm or whine or anything, he was totally behaved. And every time I put him in the backpack, I didn't get one complaint from him. Now he's just walking around the house having fun while we get some work done and it's just been so fun all day!
