I had to go run an errand off Watt Rd so I decided to stop by Major Bob Leonard Park with the boys. Rylan slept in the shade while Carter and I played for about an hour.
I've played soccer at this park several times so I knew there was a playground, but I wasn't sure how great it was. There are some swings and one big play structure. Carter's still a little small for the playground, but everything is on super-soft, rubberized ground that makes falls much less scary.
There were only a few other kids there, but Carter still copied what they were doing ...
When we first got to the park and I was getting Rylan set up, Carter got half way up this before I got to him to help him. After a few tries he had it figured out and I was only there to catch him if he fell.
Sweaty and red-cheeked ...
When we got home, I got out Carter's finger paints. These are the Crayola Color Wonder paints and paper (we also have the markers). I really like these because they only show up on the special paper. Carter still has a short attention span so we never go through more than one piece of paper a day (the paper isn't very cheap).
Carter's vocabulary is growing every day now. One thing he does though is instead of calling an animal by it's name (such as cow), he just makes the sound it makes (he even started calling dogs "woof woofs" today). He also does this for car (he calls it a "go").
Carter has trouble differentiating between cows and horses. We usually see horses, not cows, when driving. When Carter sees one, he'll say "moo". I'll tell him it's actually a horse, and then he'll say "neigh".
