Joel's First Playdates...

Joel had two playdates today....his first! We went to see Missi Beman and Carly, Nora, and Zoe for lunch and then went to meet with Stacey Heckel, Ema, Caleb, Cory Baker and Jolyn in the afternoon. He is too small to do much more than sit and watch the other kids, but he seemed to enjoy himself. His sleep schedule was messed up a little bit so he was a little cranky, but not too bad. He liked watching Caleb and Jolyn, who are closer to his age, rolling around on the floor and crawling. It won't be long and he will be able to keep up with them! Tonight my family came for a cookout. We made homemade ice cream and Mom brought homemade apple dumplings. Yum!! Joel was worn out by about 9:30, and has been sleeping in his swing ever since! Hopefully he sleeps well tonight.....
