Learning curve

Not Samuel's learning curve.  His is fine and working well.  Mine needs work.

This morning Julia had a work call to make from the house from 0800-0930 so Samuel and I hung around until she was finished so that she could spend a few minutes with Samuel before she left for the office.  Samuel and I usually leave for the city centre and shopping between 0915 & 0930 on Tuesday mornings(weather permitting).  We usually try to leave so early because the shops are not that busy and we are able to return home so that Samuel and I can play(Actually it is more like watching Samuel throw things and me telling him to pick them up then watching him pick them up and throw them down again.) before he eats lunch and goes down for his nap.

Since we got a late start this morning Julia dropped us off at the city centre on her way to work.  After we had finished our shopping I decided that it would be good to go to the boulangerie, I needed the exercise since we did not walk to the city centre, and I thought it would be nice to buy Samuel a croissant since he enjoys them so much on the weekend.  Lesson learned-never give Samuel a croissant to eat while he is in the pushchair.  BIG mistake!  His jacket and the pushchair lining are now waiting to be washed. Croissants are much flakier than baguettes.

Writing this while sitting in the office listening to christmas carols through the mac.  Samuel is dancing to "Grandma got run over by a reindeer."  For those who have not been fortunate enough to hear the song, it is an American classic.

I will address the previous post later.
