Gideon's Favorite Things

I think of this blog as Gideon's baby book so I will warn you that this is going to be a boring post about Gideon's current hobbies and favorite things.
Gideon loves boots and hats (a boy after my own heart!). He is forever bringing me his irrigating boots and having me put them on. Gideon is very creative with his definition of "hat." Today he told me "hat" and then proceeded to put a large laundry basket over his head. At dinner time, he grabbed the vegetable steamer insert to my rice cooker and wore it as a hat. He has also used garbage cans, my bras, pajama pants, and a variety of other items as "hats." Gideon enjoys coloring with markers and is not limited by paper constraints (hence the nakedness and the orange teeth). His favorite hobby, though, is going on bike rides with Peter.
Gideon used to wake up in the morning and say "bottle." Now he wakes up in the morning and says "bike."
