Morning Out with Mom

Last weekend, I took Xavier out shopping with me.  My photography homework was to take portrait shots, so I practiced on Xavier.  The shots didn't turn out too bad.




During our walk back to the car, he told me he wanted to push his baby, so I let him handle the stroller.  He stopped a few times to give his baby a toy (binoculars), some snacks, and water.  So cute!

For lunch, we went to North Star in the Short North to get the best pancakes in town.  The fill their pancakes with ricotto cheese, and there's something about their warm syrup that is to-die for.

I told him if he was good, I'd take him to see my work.  He always asks where I go during the day while he's at the babysitter, but he doesn't really understand what work is.  I pointed out that downtown, where the jail is, is where all the tall buildings are.  We stood next to my building (40 stories) and looked straight up.  He was amazed by how high it went in the air.  I took him to my floor and he loved it!  I showed him my desk too and let him see all the pictures of himself up on my wall.



But obviously, nothing beats randomly finding 3 pieces of chocolate in people's offices.  That was by far the best part.  Smart boy!
