Sorry for the lack of posts recently. I actually did one about a week ago and was just finishing up when a technical error caused me to lose the whole thing. I was too disheartened to start again. And the past week has been BUSY, much like the rest of this month will be, so I wouldn't count on Walt's World for all your entertainment needs this month. Anywho . . .
Part of what kept us busy this past week was getting ready for the Cooper Young Parent Network (CYPN) party at our house on Friday. This weekend was the Cooper Young Festival, which always starts off with a 4-mile race that goes right past our house on Friday night. So, after our good friend, Mandy, had the genius idea of starting the CYPN, we decided that the race was a perfect excuse for throwing a party to kick it off! I was pretty busy with hostessing duties during the party, so I didn't get a lot of great pictures, but here are a few . . .
This is Vincent -- he was super-cute.
The guy on the right is Joe, our across-the-street neighbor and good friend. I have no idea who the rest of the people are, as was the case with probably thirty of the people at the party. I kept rushing through the house to retrieve more hot dogs or trash bags, smiling at total strangers hanging out in my living room -- next time I hope to actually MEET some of the people in the network!
And here's the only picture I got of Walt the whole night -- he and Daddy were chatting up the friendly policeman who stopped by to say hi (not to bust up the crazy toddler party).
Most of the times I saw Walt (Kate was helpfully keeping an eye on him while Josh ran the race and I manned the grill), he was either elbow-deep in a bag of Tostitos, or had a brownie clutched in his hand. One time Josh asked him (while he was holding a brownie, no less) how many he'd had. "None," came the reply. We estimate the true answer to that question at the end of the night was at least four. Oh well. I don't think that's an arrestable offense in most states.
I'm glad you took pictures!
