We have officially entered the "why" stage

Gabe has changed in so many ways since the beginning of the summer; he falls asleep on his own, is potty trained (even at night), participates in group classes, helps out around the house, and tells funny jokes and stories. He's always been inquisitive and wanted to know how things worked. However, last night at bedtime, he stalled with an endless stream of "no, but why"s. Some highlights: "Why can't Red Robin come to Chick-Fil-A with us?" "Where does Red Robin sleep?" and "How will Red Robin open the elevator?". Oh boy. Also, can you tell where we've eaten out lately?

We went to two different REIs this weekend to pick up Gabe's new shoes and some backpacking gear. He was thrilled because he could ride elevators and 2-wheeled bikes and play in tents.
