I finally did it!

I finally managed to update the blog TWICE this week! Ok, I know, it really isn't that big of an accomplishment!

Brayden's New Idea
Brayden came up with a new fun thing to do with Sienna, which they do several times a day. The way it works is that Sienna digs a toy out of the toy basket...
And then hands it off to Brayden...
Then he runs over to the couch where he builds a pile of toys! The kids do this over and over several times a day. Luckily Brayden does a pretty good job of putting the toys away when I ask him to. One time they even used the same sort of process to put the toys away. Funny what kids consider fun. ;)
Staver Locomotive
After Chris got home on Friday night, we all hopped in the car and headed to Staver Locomotive. The first Friday of every month, you can go and watch all of the steam powered trains run around several tracks. We have been looking for new activities to do with the kids and they both really enjoyed watching the trains. Plus there was a ton of room for them to walk around. They have a couple of important rules: no running and no touching the trains (the trains are hot)! The only downside was the 45 minute drive there.

The kids had fun walking around all of the tracks...

Sienna liked to point out the trains as they passed by...
Here is just one of the trains that the kids enjoyed watching. We only stayed for about an hour and right before we left they finally got this one running....
It was the longest train there that night!
