Ball!

Guinness loves to throw a ball or any size and then watch it bounce/roll away. Then he laughs and laughs and runs to get it and throws it again. Marbles are good, but easily lost so mommy likes tennis balls better.

He is also adjusting to the new routine. When I got home from school today he said "Gemma?" and I said, "Yep. Where's Gemma?" and he said, "School!"

"Should we go pick her up?"
"Yeah!" (enthusiastic nod)


The arrangement is I come home after school at 4ish, get Guinness, and we go get her together. We have a snack (Gem has one at school before she leaves, Guin eats on the bike ride over) and go play, stopping at a park along the way home. He is so wild it makes getting her hard because if I put him down to help her with her backpack, water bottle, lunch dishes, etc, he's all over the place; pushing elevator buttons, eating other kids' snacks, playing with toys he shouldn't be, playing drums, etc. But even today was better for him; he's starting to get the message about where his boundaries at school are.

We had so much fun at Daan park today after school we stayed for an hour and a half.
