Grass

Yesterday we took Connor to the park for a birthday party and he had the chance to discover grass. He loves to grab at things, so the first thing he did was grab at it. When he figured out that he could pull it out, well then it was all over with. I think Elk Grove Park has a few bald spots now, where he ripped it clean of grass. He kept trying to eat it, though, and quick as we were, some still got in his mouth. (eww!) Eventually, though, he learned not to put it in his mouth. It was funny to watch the understanding fight the instinct. He would go to put it in his mouth and then realize that he wasn't supposed to, so he'd stop.
