Justin is so into his new train. Right when he woke up this morning we came down to play trains. Nicole slept in until about 8:00 so I got to play trains for a bit with Justin. He tells me what to do, when to stop my train, backup, park it, etc. It is cute. Nicole woke up so upset that one of her teddies wasn’t in her bed, luckily we found it pretty quickly. Justin couldn’t wait for Nicole to play trains with him. Not too much fighting but Nicole has ended up with the new one. We ran to the grocery store this morning. I know I was just there but wanted to get some meat for tonight as Grammy is coming over for dinner. Nicole wanted to wear her doggie harness thing in the store. We ran home to bring groceries home then headed to the park for park day with the mom’s club. It has been so long that I have gone to park day. It was fun and a lot of new moms that I haven’t met. The kids had so much fun playing. They climbed, went down slides, and played in the sand. They were playing with Jane a lot (Erin’s child), so cute to watch N&J follow her around. On the way home we stopped at the library. We were there for a bit reading books. We got some kids books on cd for the trip to Vegas, we have never tried those before but I am sure the kids will love them. The kids wanted to watch a Mickey/Minnie DVD we got from the library but it wasn’t working. They watched Little Einsteins and I caught up on calls for pre school. I did laundry. I have been wanting to polish all our wood for a long time now-who knew the kids would want to help. It was great, little workers. I played trains after with them since they were so helpful. Justin has all these rules for playing trains with him, you have to stop when he tells you to and go when he wants you too. I backed up my train so I could be in front of him but he told me to wait until he got ahead of me. While J and I played trains, N and I played with her magnetic doll. I was so tired of trains I got the games out. We playe Hungry Hungry Hippos, etc. We had a fun afternoon together. Grammy came over and hung out a bit. Dad got home really late. So we had dinner then played trains again. The kids went to bed a little later than normal. We couldn’t find Justin’s teddy for a bit but we found it.
