Family Time

Andrew has worked almost every Saturday for 15 months. He had today off, though, so we took advantage of it! After breakfast, Andrew took Peter for a walk while I cleaned up the kitchen. Peter got this really neat little car for his birthday from Aunt Amy and Aunt Kim. It has a handle for us to push it with. Peter LOVES riding in it. He enjoys looking around at everything and honking the horn. It was a little after 9am when Andrew and Peter returned from their walk, so it was nap time for Peter. He slept for over 2 hours! Once he woke up, we headed out. We had lunch at Chicken Express. Chicken Express is right next to a park, so we went over to the park to play. The weather was perfect. We walked for a little while, and then we stopped to swing. Peter really enjoys swinging.

Then Peter sat on the purple dinosaur. His balance is getting so much better!

After the dinosaur, we spread out the blanket and sat for a while in the shade. Ok, Andrew and I sat. Peter scooted all over the place. I tried to keep him on the blanket, but he wanted nothing to do with that. He discovered sticks for the first time. He only tried to eat the little ones, so we didn't mind when he picked up a giant stick. At least he couldn't put it in his mouth! There was a cool breeze, so we enjoyed just hanging out.
We left around 3pm so Peter could have his second nap. He slept for an hour and a half - just enough time for Mommy and Daddy to nap too. :) We took one more walk in the toy car after dinner (Homer joined us for that walk), and then it was off to bed. It was nice to have Daddy home the entire day today!
