Ben

Date with Dad – mini golf!  It is not shocking that Ben chose to repeat his previous date with Mom, with Dad this month.  He has also convinced Grandma and Grandpa that mini golf is something they should add to their list of activities.  He is crazy about it.  He has already decided that for June he will plan his family activity to be mini golf so that Sister can go this time.  He has also requested real golf clubs and a trip to the real golf course with Dad.  He seems to enjoy this sport!

Pick meal and help cook – Ben selected breakfast for dinner as “that is all he knows how to cook”.  He is also pretty partial to eating pancakes and maple glazed sausage links.  :)

Elizabeth

Date with Mom – play outside and painting toenails!  Mom listed many choices for the date and Elizabeth just kept asking to play in the backyard.  Easy enough and plenty fun!  Elizabeth had also been begging to have her toenails painted after seeing Mom’s painted.  It is the most still she has ever sat!  She was so excited to have pink toes and pretends to repaint them all the time.  There was also time to explore the garden, swing, slide, blow bubbles, etc.  

Plan a game night – Elizabeth chose to play I Spy as a family in the backyard.  It may have been just another ploy to get outside, but it was fun just the same.  Elizabeth’s current version of I Spy is not very tricky.  She says “I spy something green – the grass!” or sometimes even less descriptive prior to the reveal, “I spy a bunny!”  She really enjoys it though and gets a kick out of her turn in the game.
