Fun Times

There isn't a whole lot to report on, but we have been having fun. I started going to aerobics, fairly regularly :), and Jack usually has a pretty good time. We go to our friend's church and "dance" in the gym. There are little kids who just run around everywhere and play with toys while the moms work up a sweat.

We've gone to the park a few times this week, the weather has been much nicer lately, and Jack has had a blast. I think Jack's favorite thing about all our park visits has been the collecting of rocks and sticks. Oh yes, this takes up the majority of our time. Pete taught him to find berries and either squish them with the stick or to step on them. Jack thinks this is awesome. Dad's are so much more fun and interesting.

Jack got a backpack because his friend Elsie has three, and Jack loves to wear her backpacks when we go visiting over there. Now he realizes that daddy also has a backpack so this had made the wearing of the backpack that much cooler. He tells me he is going to school too when he puts it on.

Then for his birthday, Granny got him a little piano. I don't know who is having more fun with it, Pete or Jack, but at least Granny knows that it is getting used quite a bit. Jack will "play" the piano while singing either Pop Goes the Weasel or Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

In the next couple of weeks we have a trip to Illinois and Kentucky in the works. We are going to a math conference and to visit my family. I think we will have lots more to write about then.
