Betty and I headed out early in the morning to go take care of the boys. After they finished breakfast, it was time to build the train track so Thomas and his friends could ride the rails with Alex and Luke's help. Today we had the best track built during our three visits! Betty helped Alex extend the track so there were many options for travel without meeting on the same track. Once the track was finished the four of us were on the floor taking our trips around the track, and over and under bridges. I am still learning that Thomas has many friends, and I cannot remember all the names.
We always take a morning walk to the green grocer and the boys enjoy the walk--Alex on his tricycle and Luke in his stroller. On the way home we take the walk through the park for the ride on the swing. The boys play outside on the deck, and enjoy their trampoline in the back yard. It has a tall safety net with a zippered entrance so there is no danger of the boys falling off the side. (I wonder if this type is made in the US. I have only seen larger ones with no protective net in the yards in our area.)
While the boys napped later in the day, Betty and I watched the Alex Anderson quilt programs saved on TV for her viewing. After naps the boys were back to their activities, keeping us busy untill Rod got home from work. Besides returning to outdoor play, we played with playdough, creating a variety of things, and helping the boys, pry the dough out of the "cookie cutters". Our "boy day" goes by quickly.
