Sunday: Dinosaur park with Logan, Hanguelbi Park, and playground by the stream

Another three park day. In the morning August invented a new percussion instrument by putting one of his shakers in the baby blender and then using a stick from the xylophone to rattle it around. And when Carly was vacuuming he got even more excited and closer to the vacuum than usual. They also had a good time skyping with the PA crew.

He took an early nap and during his nap I got a message from Derek saying he and Logan were coming to our park. So after August woke up we went down and met them. Like before they ignore the play structure and instead walked around the park. August was again I to following Logan. But August’s favorite thing was the big anthill we found. He wanted to sit down and watch the ants. This was fine while I was right there to keep the ants at bay, but when I tried to get a video one ran up his arm and Carly put an end to that.

Derek and Logan were walking on to Eunhang Junction so we tagged along as far as Hangeulbi Park. We played at Hangeulbi, going on the swings, but mainly walking August around. We then went to Toys R Us to look around. We didn’t buy anything but August found a toy piano that he really likes.

We returned home for awhile. Carly wanted to make spaghetti, so August and I went out one more time, this time to the playground by the youth center and stream. He walked a ton. He tried following a boy around who was driving one of those electric cars and he really liked walking on the grates over the drainage ditches. And when people were playing basketball he was very much into that.

We were there for a little over an hour, and on our way back he walked from the playground to most of the way across the bridge before asking to be picked up.

Back home he pulled out the train set, which he hasn’t really used in weeks, and played with it for quite awhile. He is much better at putting the trains in the starting tunnel and pushing the button than he was back then.
