This was one of our weeks to host one of the 3 different playgroups the boys are involved in. We have been meeting up with these friends every week for about the last year. These are the guys best buds. They were all excited that it was snack time!
Later that day, for lunch Mommy pulled out some yummy apple butter that the guys got to spread on corn pancakes and then on toast. They didn't actually eat much lunch this day...I think they were too distracted with the fun of spreading and the tasty apple butter. They would get some on their knife and spread it on the toast, and then the next time they would just spread the apple butter on their finger and lick it right off. (That was after I had to explain to them why they shouldn't lick it right off the knife!) They wanted more, more, more!
The guys love finding slugs right now. They will carry them around the entire time we are playing outside. This morning Cole named his 'sluggy'.
Today was a special treat for the guys...Daddy took off a couple hours from work and we went to Sparky the Firedog's birthday celebration (at a local kids hands-on science/art center). They got to check out a real fire truck and fire fighters...and they even got to sit inside the fire truck! They had all these questions ready to ask the fireman, but as soon as they were inside the truck they were so star struck that they hardly said a word.
As we were leaving, the fire truck got called out on an actual emergency and we got to watch it drive away with its sirens and lights flashing! Now that was exciting!
This center has some great outdoor play areas too, so after we dragged them from the fire truck they played on this little truck (they called it their little blue fire truck).
They kept wanting Mommy and Daddy to sit in the back of their truck. Dylan is making truck sound effects.
Once we convinced them to try something else we had fun with the large outdoor xylophones.
Cole is getting good at double fisting it.
