always keeping one eye on the bright side, silas skipping his afternoon nap means that he will most likely fall asleep in my arms way before his bedtime. kinda like when he was a newborn and he would get so sleepy that he would just fall asleep while we were holding him up under his armpits.

we spent the day tooling around evanston, checking out what kind of fancy park equipment the kids in the suburbs have at their disposal. all those rowdy kids check out right around noon to go home and eat. and we got the playground all to ourselves.

suckers! haven't they ever heard of a picnic lunch?!

the biggest excitement this week (so far) is that silas has started signing back to us. he's got "milk", "more", "eat" and "finished" in the bag and did a half-ass "water" sign to me this morning. but the funniest part is that when you ask him what he wants, he runs through his repertoire before he settles on the one he wants. except in the middle of the night, everything is milk at that point. ridiculous.
i guess this means we have to start throwing more signs at him. as soon as i finish this post, i'm looking up the asl for waffles, chard and poop.
