andrew
is at that age where staying home all day, every day, means lots of
boredom. the beautiful weather of fall, spring and summer spoil him.
he loves being outside and going places.
he is also at that age where craft projects are not the easiest thing to do. he gets frustrated, and i get frustrated, and we wake up his baby brother with our LOUD frustration. needless to say, our days indoors are spent doing lots of puzzles and reading.
we go to target or the mall, mostly for the entertainment purpose, and to tire out my little guy. staying inside the house doesn't give him the opportunity to burn off enough energy.
so every day, when i get him dressed, he asks me where we are going. some days the answer is simply that we are not going anywhere. this never pleased him because he wants to hear that we are going somewhere, even if it is just to the grocery store. and so i started telling him we were going to funky town, just to get him to be quiet.
the only bad thing is that now he keeps asking about monkey town, (his translation), and i have no answer but... let's do another puzzle.
