mini contortionist


Zane had a pretty busy week!  He found out that his toes reach his mouth, so I've pulled off a number of pairs of soggy socks :)  We had some friends in town visiting this weekend, so Zane got to add to his list of Seattle activities.  He took his first trip to Pike Place Market and Gasworks Park.  I think he was intrigued by all of the different kinds of produce at the Market that he's going to get to  try soon.  We also ventured to our neighborhood farmers' market, the Olympic Sculpture Park, and a friend's "local-off" cookout competition featuring local ingredients.  Zane helped make some thai iced tea ice cream using local farm fresh eggs and dairy... we thought that was a tasty way to highlight those ingredients and satisfy his dad's craving for thai iced tea.  We didn't win, but it was fun and yummy.  

The weekend seemed to revolve a lot around food, and Zane got to add some new veggies to his repertoire this week - yellow squash and butternut squash.  Yellow squash seems to be his favorite so far, much to his dad's dismay!  Zane may look like a mini version of his dad, but at least I can say he's my kid too since he seems to really like his veggies. :)  Let's hope it stays that way!  We're going to move beyond the yellow veggies next and try some green beans.
