Most of out day was dedicated to packing and cleaning.
But despite that, August and I went out twice, and in the late afternoon we all went for a walk.
On our first trip August and I just went to the grocery store to get a couple last items. Unfortunately, it isn’t the grocery store I usually buy diapers at and I ended up grabbing these liner things, not diapers.
So awhile later we went out again. This time we first went and played in the stream/Rock area in the park, then went and saw the new show at the art museum. It is probably the best show yet for August. It includes three pieces by the same artist that had these plastic creatures that breathe in and out hanging over the stairwell when the museum first opened. I got August to start raising his arms when the creatures breathed in and extended their tentacles.
Before returning home we stopped once again at the store and picked up diapers this time.
In the late afternoon, packing pretty much done, we all went for a walk. First we went to the art museum so Carly could see some of the art. We then walked back to the west and across the stream and went to the playground by the youth center.
We were there for about an hour. There was water under the grates this time due to a heavy rainstorm this morning. August had fun reaching his skinny arms down there and touching the water. He also did a lot of wandering around and threw a lot of leaves and little rocks into the water. As he walked around he usually held an object, be it his ball, a brochure he found, or something else.
‘baby’ seems to be a word today, after we looked into the playroom at the museum and I said something about a baby we saw there.
He walks around the apartment saying this over and over sometimes. He only says it once here, but you get the idea:
