We woke August up at 7:25. When I said I’d be making noise downstairs in a couple minutes he asked, “Can you take Uncle Paul’s car?” He started telling Carly about putting salt in a car AC and drilling holes in a car.
I got going at 7:30 and got there at 10:20. More rainy over the pass today. Peter White and his kids and Stephanie (who had come with) were there before me. We met inside this year, although moved outside for eating. It is our last meeting out at the cabin, as they have sold it.
While I was gone August decided he could run on the grass if he’s wearing his light-up shoes, and not just his Crocs. They played with a big bench ball that Chuck had spotted floating between the beaches and gotten for August when it blew to shore. He played chess with Paul and made chocolate chip cookies with Mom. He and Carly took the stroller to Bear Foods for popcorn and got a lemonade drink.
I was home right at 6. He played Civilization Revolution with me. He had done a great job with screen time today, saving some for later in the day. We had meatballs and rice and broccoli for dinner. He told us a big story about how a girl had lost the beach ball on the Alexander River (which is in Israel) and floated all the way here before Chuck found it.
We went out and played in the garage. Then took him in a for a bath. He played with all the toys for longer today. We talked about which pieces fitted together, and ‘compatible’ was a word of the day. Downstairs I let him have one of the strawberry Altoids, then brushed his teeth. He listened to recordings he had made on his iPad while Carly and I discussed books. I left them at 8:45. He had talked about wanting to sleep in the garage, but we convinced him of inside.
