Baby Rave
As if Isaac wasn't the subject of enough female attention today...
Every evening after dinner, if it's not raining, we indulge in some outside time. More often than not, we are joined by Claudia and her Dad and/or Mum, who live a building up from up. Claudia sees us outside all the time because her apartment leads right out into the swingset (this means that it is "her" swingset, of course, which she will tell anyone who should trespass there). This past week, her Mum taught her Isaac's name, and now whenever she sees him she freaks out: EYE-SACK, EYE-SACK!!!!!!!!!! Though Isaac cannot reciprocate with a "Claudia", he substitutes some loud and shrill baby glee-shrieks to let her know that she has been spotted and her attention is requested. The fact that they are so excited to see each other is absolutely hilarious, because their playtime usually consists of them playing right next to, but ignoring each other, or of Isaac stealing Claudia's toys (or pitching a ROYAL fit if it is suggested that he share), and Claudia screaming at the injustice of it all. But every day it starts anew, their interest in each other.
This evening they were joined by yet another buddy, Ella, who lives across the street and also comes to swing often. For your reference: Claudia (in the green pants) is 18 months, Ella is 22 months. Now that Isaac can join these highly mobile ladies, we were treated to a "Baby Rave". They all migrated over to some metal panels installed in the ground by the cable company, which, if you should stomp on them, sound hollow. WOW!
Then in their baby-rave frenzy, they tried to topple a bike ALA crazed post-Series Red Sox Fans:

That's so cool he has other babies to play with right there in the neighborhood!
Hey Claire,
Congrats on the baby. I found this blog kinda by accident, but I'm glad I did. It's great to know that all is going good for you and I wish you luck on your thesis defense.
