This morning Luke and I played with Legos before going up to Franklin and meeting my dad at the park. Luke had a lot of fun there playing on the playground and pushing his stroller all over. We returned home for lunch and after he attempted to nap. That didn’t go well but he at least got some quiet time. After that we built more Legos then went outside. We drove to the back of the property and then walked around some. We returned inside once Liz got off work. I then went into town to see the tractor dealer, auto mechanic, gun shop, and auto parts store. Dinner was a nice Asian dish I made in the slow cooker. There was a lot of clean up before bath since Luke made several messes throughout the house. Liz is putting him to bed now.

I didn’t fall asleep until well past midnight last night, so I attempted to sleep in this morning. That didn’t really work, but I did stay in bed pretty late. Upon waking I split a little more firewood, straightened up the cottage, and gathered leaves for compost at the new property. I drove home via Fayetteville and was rained on the whole time, although without any intensity. Luke was attempting to nap when I arrived, but he heard me and all hope was lost. So we played with Legos and then he went with Liz to Target. Dinner and bedtime went pretty well.

Another early morning for Luke. We built more Legos and went outside for a long time before lunch. He helped me haul some wood to the burn pile. I am pretty pleased with our progress on cleaning up the property. He refused to nap after lunch and had to go to timeout a few times. After snack we built more Legos. Liz got off work and took him back outside while I went to the dump. He went to bed pretty easily I think.
