So, blogging is not nearly as easy at it used to be. Why, you may ask. Well, it is because Sawyer is mobile. He used to lay or sit, playing quietly with his toys. It was easy for me to sit next to him and play on my mac as I wanted to. Those days, however, are sadly behind us. When he isn’t trying to french the leg of the coffee table, he is trying to type on my laptop (very emphatically, I might add - always with the caps lock). Luckily, however, since he isn’t fond of sleeping at night anymore, I will blog during naptime (if I can stay awake).
It was very hot the second part of the week while we were in Ohio. As we try to pack in as much as we can, and see as many people as we can, we ran down to the Short North to visit with dear friends, Gretchen and Jesse, who Scott used to work with ten years ago at Lindey’s in German Village. We met up at Jeni’s Ice Cream parlor, which has now become my favorite ice cream. If only it didn’t cost $35 to send it to SF.
Gretchen is a very loyal follower of the Sawyer blog. We are so happy that she recently became engaged, even if it means she is moving to Montana. Gretchen gave Sawyer the most adorable hat and t-shirt, purchased from Loot. A big thank you again to Gretchen!
Here are Gretchen and Sawyer. Sawyer is wearing the hat which Gretchen gave him.
Gretchen has so far won the prize for the being the person on whom Sawyer has thrown up on the most times in the shortest amount of time. Our friend Erin had previously held the title on the day that we took Sawyer to his first baseball game, Indians vs. A’s, in Oakland. Congratulations Gretchen! I know you are very honored.
Jesse, Gretchen, and Sawyer
We also met up with friends Amanda and Erin. Erin was visiting home the same week we were. Somehow we managed only to get pictures of Amanda. Perhaps Erin wanted Gretchen to enjoy her day as the new record holder.
Although it took some time to get these pics up, it is perfect timing. Happy Birthday to Amanda on the 5th and Jesse’s, just past, on the 1st!
