I miss our breakfast<br \/>\n    routine and I miss going places with just him. Maybe I&#8217;ll have<br \/>\n    to try and arrange an outing with just him soon. We went to the<br \/>\n    farmers market yesterday. It was so nice. He played in the<br \/>\n    fountain and at the little playground. Then we walked around<br \/>\n    the booths and bought a cookie and some lemonade and sat down<br \/>\n    to watch a guy playing the fiddle. It was really nice. Then Eve<br \/>\n    woke up (as expected) and was hungry (also as expected) and<br \/>\n    that was the end of our nice afternoon. I tried to get Lex to<br \/>\n    stay in one place for awhile, explaining that Eve needed to eat<br \/>\n    and it was dangerous for him to run away from me. The farmers<br \/>\n    market is in a lovely little park which happens to be right in<br \/>\n    the middle of a traffic circle &#8211; not the safest of places to<br \/>\n    let a kid roam. Not surprisingly, he wouldn&#8217;t stay in one area<br \/>\n    (we tried the fountain and the playground both and he kept<br \/>\n    running away) so I ended up carrying him, kicking and crying,<br \/>\n    back to the car and Eve cried on the way home because she was<br \/>\n    still hungry. Kind of a crappy ending to a nice afternoon.<br \/>\n    Nobody&#8217;s fault, of course, just life with two little ones, I<br \/>\n    guess.<\/p>\n<p><a onblur=\"try\n    {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_xGc8ytldDks\/RnJlwJBJBMI\/AAAAAAAABdU\/Zj01S0_wYxs\/s1600-h\/IMG_0721.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer;\n    cursor:hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_xGc8ytldDks\/RnJlwJBJBMI\/AAAAAAAABdU\/Zj01S0_wYxs\/s200\/IMG_0721.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5076231607728800962\" \/><\/a>I had a nice evening with her later though.
