A day of firsts on the first day of the year.

Yesterday my son and I created our first indoor 'fort' in the basement. Of course he has a play tent, but nothing compares to a blanket strewn over chairs and boxes and other various pieces of furniture, with toys and pillows inside, and a giant stuffed dog guarding the entry way.

Also, yesterday wa shis first live hockey game. He has watched hockey with me on TV, and nearly came unglued when the real players came out on the ice and played. Of course his attention span lasted about teh first 10 mintues of the game. That makes it nice that we were watching form the credit union sky box and he had plenty of room to move and run and watch treehouse tv.

Opposite of firsts is lasts, and the last of my grandma's amazing cinnimon buns is on the counter at our place. Jake enjoys them, but I am wrestling to decide if he is discerning enough to have the last one, or if he would be jjust as happy with one from any bakery.

Happy New Year
