So Alex has a rash all over and some poo problems. Hmm...could be the fish, though he's had that before, or maybe the soy sauce on the fish, or the new kind of pasta, or...hard to tell. So it's time to back up a bit & give him some foods less likely to be problematic - more peas, broccoli, Jarred foods, banana, pear, maybe keep the pancakes. Or I might just eliminate the fish & pasta & see what happens.

Once again we got up & took a walk to the zoo. We could hear the gibbons as we walked down the hill, but by the time we got to them, their voices musta given out. Maybe tomorrow we'll be early enough to catch them - they were still howling at 6:45.

Today is usually Alex's music class day, but we found the room empty (Jill -don't laugh!) So we headed to Trader Joe's. Alex seemed to like the dreadlocks on the checkout guy, and he was fascinated by a kid sitting in a cart eating a strawberry. Then we went to Whole Foods, UPS store, and home. Alex decided not to nap, like yesterday, so at 4 we went to Kalorama park to play a little. Alex was sleepy, though, and the other baby there (Eitan) easily scared Alex back into my arms several times.

But he still loved the slide!



I think Alex might be waving good-bye - he seemed to wave good-bye to Angela today, though it might have been random hand-waving action. We'll see..
