Evan walked home from school

While Evan was at school today I did some cleaning. I vacuumed and washed clothes while Noah took a little late morning nap.

I walked to pick Evan up from school. When I got to school the kids were outside for story time. I could see the playground as I approached the school and could tell Evan was out there. Evan was really excited to see us walking up. He ran up to playground fence and said hi to me and Noah.

I let Evan walk some of the way home. He did really well. He stayed by me. At one point he said he wanted to find a chair to sit on. I asked if was tired and if he wanted to sit in the stroller. He said he just wanted to find a chair. I said we’d look for one, but of course we didn’t see any in our neighborhood on the way home. A little while later he asked to sit in the stroller. I would say he walked about ¼ of the way home.

When we got home I did more cleaning and laundry while Evan and Noah played.

While the boys were upstairs for naps I rearranged the downstairs family room furniture. Noah kept getting to the wires for the phone and lamp so I wanted to try to change the way the room was set up.

Noah napped for a little bit, but Evan didn’t nap. When I brought Evan downstairs he seemed a little confused by the new furniture layout. He asked what I did. We talked about where the couch and the chair used to be.

For dinner we had Coke Ham and mashed potatoes.

After dinner we went to Circuit City to see if we could get any good deals. Everything was picked over and the stuff they did have wasn’t that great. All we got was a Garfield 2 DVD for Evan.

We just put Evan and Noah to bed. It seems to be quiet up there.
