Aunt Mel's Place

Yesterday, we went to Aunt Mel's for lunch. Dylan always yells really loud when he first sees Hope, "HI HOPE!" It's so cute! We ate mac n cheese, salad, and chicken sandwiches. Dylan had a runny nose that needed to be wiped about every 10 seconds yesterday but it seems to be just a little stuffy today. After lunch we went to the park and played. Well, technically Dylan just played in a big pit with dirt and rocks, but the other kids played on the playground equipment. He told me stories about a certain little boy throwing dirt and it hit him in the face. It's cute hearing him tell stories because you kind of have to already know what he's talking about to figure out what he's trying to say. It was a little cooler and even cooler today, but it's spring time. That's the expected weather. Although, I'm ready for late spring when it's like 70s during the day every day. We don't expect to see that kind of weather in the next 10 days, though.

I got to see Hope swing at the park. I dont' know if it was her first time, but she sure was cute. I'm going to upload a video of her swinging and some pictures on our Family Photo Album. You'll have to check her out.

When we got back from the park, Hope had fallen asleep in her stroller. Mel carried her straight to bed hoping she would take a long afternoon nap. 45 minutes later, Hope decided she was ready to get up. When I got her up Dylan was playing with Lily the Leap Frog and she was singing a number song. Dylan gave Lily to Hope and said, "Here, let me push button...sing song!" Then, he was dancing and trying to sing with the song and Hope was giggling at him. It was a definite camcorder moment and there wasn't one within reach so it'll just have to be for my memory.

Today, we went to eat lunch with Daddy and his friends at CiCi's Pizza. Pizza is ok there but the service was above average and everything was extremely clean. Clean is always something I like to see in a restaurant. It makes me feel better. Then, we ran some errands and ended up at the library. We got books on tractors, monster trucks, and motorcycles this time and we rented a "Bob the Builder" movie. It was Dylan's first and he really liked it.

He's down for a nap now and I'm off to do the usual laundry and dishes. We'll talk soon, or I will and you'll read / listen.
