Thursday night felt like the first night of summer so we went to Herman's Drive In in Topton. They have soft serve that isn't very soft, rather a star-shaped ice cream extrusion that holds up magnificently, and rocking chairs. The flavor of the week was peanut butter and the whole scene was suitably summery.

It rained other nights and that was kind of a drag. Duder's moving to the toddler room and has decided that napping is less fun than toddling, which he doesn't really do. His single short nap has been on the floor with the other big kids and then he's been a tired and weary baby in the evenings. Standing and talking seem imminent. Tomorrow night we're going camping in the yard to get him some experience in the Big House.

And a picture from Steamtown... me and Duder.
