Call Day #19, 9/26/13

Oliver started the morning with a great selection of toys provided by Eleanor, but spent more time watching her walk around than play with them.

Playing "moving to a new house."  Their new house was in Nashville, TN.  Guess who they're missing today!

Went to the library and post office.  Showing off the Air Mail stickers the post office worker gave them.  They thought it was funny when I teased them about being a large package and a medium sized package to be mailed.  They wanted to be mailed to Nashville.  And then they declared that we're the "Scattered Madsens because Pa lives in Pennsylvania and Brian and Tara live far away and..."  Despite being in North Carolina instead of Boston, family is still too far away for their liking.

Eleanor introduced Oliver to the LeapPad.  It lights up and makes noise so of course he liked it.

Hanging out at church while Eleanor was at kids' choir practice.  Claire and I counted the sides on this table arrangement together and she was proud to tell me it was a hexagon.  Our book of the week has been about bees and we had just talked about the repeating hexagon shape in a honeycomb yesterday.

Didn't quite catch his new position of the past few days, up on his toes.  Wonder if the belly crawl will turn into some other form of getting around?

Oliver and Claire's favorite friend at church.

Post-choir on the playground.  Lovely friends and a wonderful day to be outside.
