Sunday was a beautiful day. We decided to head over to a neighborhood in NW Portland because we never go over there and we had nothing else to do. We walked around and on NW 23rd Ave. we came across some metal pigs. Elias climbed on those for a while and then we went to a toy store. Before we left, we told Elias that we weren't buying anything today so Elias was very good about looking at all the toys but not asking for anything. However, he was not so good about the gelato. Close to the toy store was a little cafe that served gelato. Harry wanted a drink so I thought it would be a good idea to stop in there for a little snack. I told Elias he could either have a little bit of the gelato or juice. He chose the "vanilla ice cream." After having several bites of his gelato he thought that maybe he would like juice. I explained to him that I had already given him a choice between gelato and juice and he had chosen gelato. "Okay, I want gelato," he said. "You have gelato," I told him. He didn't believe me... he had vanilla ice cream. We left cafe and most of the "ice cream." None of us were very happy.
After the gelato incident we walked to a park. It had a pretty impressive wooden play structure and we played pirate ship for about an hour. That was much better than gelato. Then we went to the Chapel Pub for dinner and Elias fell asleep eating his corn dog and tater tots.
