The singing all out of batteries!

Walter was playing with a boat, toy fish and train this morning, he said the boat was on it's way to American Idol (which surprised me since he hasn't watched that on t.v in a long time) so I said what is the boat going to do at American Idol? He said "dance." Then he lined up the boat, train and fish and said they where at American Idol, so I asked if he was going to sing for them and he said "no the singing out of batteries!"

We spent the afternoon building with foam blocks and mega blocks. We made a train station, a tunnel, a bridge and a light house. Then Walter laid down his Thomas track and drove the trains around. He really got into it and drove his frog over in a car to the train station to buy a ticket and then put his frog onto his train. He also drove his boat around the light house. Rose E had fun too, she got a kick out of knocking over towers that I built for her. She also sat for a long time drumming on the mega block container and emptying the blocks out of it.
I am very excited because our dinning room now has it's first coat of paint on it. We went with a color on the top, a color on the bottom and a stripe chair rail height. It is going to make a dramatic change! I will post a picture when it is done.

I love it too. I am addicted! Walter is right. Since just about everything runs on batteries with children, I would say that's the problem too!!
