As tired as I get trying to think of creative ways to entertain a 9 month old, sometimes it's the simple things that work best. After throwing him in the car for yet another I-don't-know-where-I'm-driving-I'm-just-driving episode, I called my parents, and they said they were at the river trying their luck with the fish. Perfect - I crashed that party. As soon as we arrived at the water, Simon's mood changed.
