Little Engineers!

Walter's friend Cyrus and his baby brother Augie came over this morning. Walter sure was excited! Before they came he kept saying "I can't wait, I can't wait!" They had fun building a floor puzzle of a fire truck and then when it was all done Walter covered it up with the scarves and said he painted it. Of course a play date with these two wouldn't have been complete either if it didn't involve trains! The rest of the time they laid out track and drove trains around. Walter just loves it when someone else shares a passion for trains too! Then when Cyrus left, Walter kept saying "we had fun playing, lets have Cyrus over again (it doesn't seem like that long ago when he was coming to our house every day when I babysat him)."

This afternoon we went grocery shopping. I went to the co-op and scouted out a few crackers to try with Rose E with no wheat and no dairy. I hope they work. I also saw that they had baby organic socks there but to my disappointment they cost $7.00 a pair and all of them where tye died. She got a kick out of our visit to Walmart too. We had to visit the fish three times, she kept saying "fish" and then signing it. Then Walter kept her entertained through out the rest of the store as he made music with a rattle. It was cute because when he would stop she would say clearly "music?" I also let him pick out a Birthday present for her, he opted for a book. It was a hard decision for him as he kept debating between several books but I was proud of him because the last two came down to a little people animal book or a little people transportation book and even though I could tell he liked the transportation one more he thought she would like the animals more so that is what he picked. What a little sweet heart!
