October 28, 1984 Laura is 7 months old
Some friends came to supper. It was a good supper--roast beef cooked in the slow cooker making it remarkably tender, mashed potatoes, gravy, etc. But it resulted in quite a stack of dishes.
Laura preferred not to remain in the living room alone so I strapped her in the high chair and set her beside me to watch. Soon she discovered the handle to the silverware drawer. She strained forward til she managed to pull the drawer open. My what a treasure chest! I watched her to make sure she didn't pull out anything that might hurt her. She first extracted the plastic set of measuring spoons to chew, then a beater, then some tongs. She thought drawer opening and digging was great fun. I was able to finish the entire stack of dishes while she remained entertained.
Companionship for you as well as Baby Laura. Astounding how quickly the years fly by!
