After breakfast Madeline came and after she played with Luke for a little bit we went to the Spring Hill playground. There were several other kids there and the weather was lovely. Luke did really well playing and interacting. We stayed until lunch time and then returned home. He again didn’t take a nap. We played this afternoon and once Liz got off work we went over to our neighbor’s house. We had met their nanny and two kids at the playground, and so wanted to meet them. Only the dad was available, but he was a really nice guy and it was great to meet him. We came home for dinner and then bed time. Liz has gone to Target now.
Another busy day, and beating the rain.
Our new nanny returned this morning and Luke was very happy to see her. After playing a little we headed to the park in Spring Hill. It was overcast and super windy and we were the only ones there for the first hour or so. Luke really enjoyed running all around and going up and down the slides. Some kids and parents started to arrive and he liked watching them. My parents came and he loved showing off for them. Unfortunately it started to rain and so we went home. Liz had lunch ready and we tried napping, but were not successful. It was a very long afternoon. Dinner and bedtime went well though, aside from the fact that he was on the toilet for fifty minutes.
Down the Mountain.
I went by city hall this morning to fill out some paperwork then headed home. I stopped at Goodwill in Manchester to shop for books but didn’t find any. Then I went next door to TSC and bought three bird feeder holders. I arrived home fairly early with a desire to cut grass, but the mower was having some issues. I have been researching tonight and will hopefully be able to repair. Liz and Luke returned home from speech therapy and a play date, and Luke and I ate lunch. He wouldn’t nap so we had a car nap and ended up at Henry Horton. He enjoyed playing until we returned home for dinner. He ate a lot and then pooped a lot. Bath went well but he fussed a bit at bedtime. I tried getting some March Madness on the Roku for Liz but we are not eligible.
Brief return to the Mountain.
This morning after breakfast we took Luke to the playground in Spring Hill. Luke had a good time on the slides and we also watched some bigger kids playing flag football. Afterwards we went to Kroger for a few things. We returned home for lunch and then I drove up to the Mountain. The weather was lovely and I had to spend a little time working outside. My parents came up and we had dinner together. I hope to go to bed pretty early tonight as I am very tired.
Getting a whole lot done.
After breakfast this morning we went downtown for Cars and Coffee. That is a monthly gathering of classic cars just off the square. There was pretty good turnout and some neat cars this morning. Luke wasn’t as impressed as I had hoped, but it was still nice to be outside on a pretty day. We returned home for snack and my dad came down to help me work on the she shed. We focused on the roof and put down the underlayment followed by furring strips. We got all of that done and were able to get the metal roofing on the front side of the shed. Our next door neighbor Jerry came over and chatted/held the ladder for most of the afternoon. Luke came out and watched from a distance. We packed up a little after five I think and went inside. My dad played with Luke while Liz went to get pizza. We all ate and Luke entertained us. My dad left and Luke had a bath then went to bed pretty easily since he didn’t have a nap. I hope to go to bed soon myself.
