Saturday in the Park

I am going to warn you now. I am sorry, all the photos are of Jude. We don't care, but I understand the frustration of looking at everyone else's children on their blog.

Today was quite a day. Jude is trying to figure out the thing they call crawling. He scoots, kicks his legs, and rolls to get places. He will push up with his hands, and lifts his little bummy. You can see the look in his face, wanting so badly to move, and trying so hard to figure this out. After a while he gets it, he gets that he is still unable to crawl. Maybe another day. . . .

Here are a few shots of him trying to figure it out.




Okay. Jude may be a little on the overweight side of life, okay maybe even OBESE, but he will have the hardest abs ever! This is one of his favorite positions when he is on his back. Look at that form, he is going to have a 6-pack in no time.


This explains Jude not sleeping as well the past few nights. He had also been making this funny face of sucking his lips in, I am sure he can just feel something weird poking out. And I am sorry my son, but get used to this position, you will have a father that will constantly be interested in inspecting your oral cavity.So we went and celebrated. In the park. On days like today I am so grateful to be in Buffalo and not home in Arizona. Why? Today was sunny and 72. Beautiful.
However, Don't ask me in January where I would rather be.
This picture below shows what my new favorite drink will be all summer long. We do not have a sonic here in Buffalo, but have no fear this Cherry Limeade is killer!

While enjoying our picnic in the park, we could not leave out Jude. He enjoyed dinner too.
Always Happy.
(sorry the picture is a little overexposed, but worth it for that cute smile.)
Okay, after our wonderful evening in the park. I put Jude to bed and John went for a run. He had quite a story upon returning from the run.
I never thought of a chocolate lab as being an aggressive or dangerous dog, but after tonight I will rethink that. John was running down Sheridan towards Transit (ignore the street names if unfamiliar), so busy streets right. Well, he is enjoying a nice run, when across the street he spots a chocolate lab. That chocolate lab spots him, and charges toward John, running across Sheridan being dodged by numerous cars driving by. John sees this dog coming for him, so he slows down, and turns toward the dog. When the dog attacks, Johns kicks the dog in the head. The dog falls down, and is behind John, John is now running backwards keeping his eye on the dog. The dog gets up and charges again, John kicks him in the head again, and this time the dog runs back across the busy street. WOW. I could not believe this story. Its crazy! I am so glad he is okay, it could have been a lot worse. And I am glad it was him and not me, I would have been attacked. It is crazy to think that a lot of cars saw this happening, imagine driving down the road, and seeing a man kicking a dog in the head!
Anyway, what a day!
John made it home safely, and off to the drive in's for a man date, Jude is aleep, and I am going to get some rest. Good Night.

Hey Sara! I just started checking your blog.... hope you don't mind :) And I had to comment- First of all, Jude is SO cute! Dont mind all the pictures at all! And secondly, that is a crazy story about the dog! My mom had a similar experience while on a walk with a baby and luckily had mace with her. So now I almost always go jogging with mace. I joke that its for "bad guys" but its really for dogs! And I Have actually wondered if it would be effective to kick a dog that was attacking... so I guess that proves it works! But with my luck I would miss the dog and he'd bite my leg! :)

Oh my gosh, that is a crazy story! But kinda funny to imagine John kicking the dog in the head on that busy road! A good friend of mine was just recently attacked by a dog while she was out running and it bit her so bad she had to get stitches in her thigh! So John is lucky! :)
