Mom and Alyce met me for lunch today. I picked up some St. Louis Bread Company (Panera) and met them at the park. The weather was surprisingly nice and Alyce behaved rather well. One downside was that there were no tomatoes on our sandwiches. Currently there is a Salmonella outbreak in the tomato industry so all restaurants are nixing the tomatoes for now.
One highlight during lunch was that Alyce met her first lady bug. It landed on our table right in front of her stroller. Alyce started pointing at it and she focused in real close. We tried to get her to say bug but all that came out of bissh. Now that Alyce had something to look at she completely forgot about her grilled cheese sandwich. No big loss, she had eaten half the sandwich, some chips, and milk.
Once lunch was done we headed over to the playground equipment for a few trips on the slides until I had to get back to work. Alyce was a big fan of the bridges you had to take to get to the slides. She went down her biggest slide to date. She was a bit leery of the big slides so mom had to go down with her.
