Sledding and the Discovery Center

On New Year's Day, Nico and I headed up to the cabin for the day. Guy was meant to come, too, but his cold had worsened and he needed sleep, so he stayed home to rest.

There was SNOW at the cabin and Nico enjoyed playing in it. The porch was covered with the stuff so he went outside on the porch to poke around. He ate some snow and stomped around and had fun.

Later that day he also went outside with Papa to go sledding! Nico went down first with Papa in back but then decided he wanted to be in the back, so they switched spots for the next round. I even went down the hill a few times with Nico. It has been a long time since I have done that. You can catch a video of this at the end of the post.

We had a nice lunch and dinner, we put together some of a puzzle, I even had a bit of a nap! It was so fun to spend the whole day with them!

Saturday was the sensory friendly movie. They played Peanuts. Afterward we went to Toy World to spend the $20 that Nico received from his Great Grandma French for Christmas. He bought a new lego and a couple smaller things.

On Monday we all went to the Discovery Center with Allicia and kids. We spent an hour there and only got through the first two rooms. We paid $10 to be added to Allicia's membership so now we can go whenever we want. There are so many cool and interesting things there. This time there was a suspended tunnel/bridge made entirely of packing tape that the children could walk through. I don't have a picture of that, unfortunately.

Discovery Center was in the morning and then Nico went back to school that afternoon.

The rest of the week has been ho hum. I think. Nico has been enjoying connect-the-dots. I download the really hard ones with 600+ dots on them. We have about 5 ones that are half done, as Nico likes variety and has been getting discouraged whenever he messes up.

We hooked up the Wii and introduced Nico to Wii Games like golf and bowling. We are limiting his time on the Wii currently because he has been very demanding about wanting to play games.

He was up at 4:30 this morning and is struggling to fall asleep tonight and it's almost 8 PM. Not sure why he's had such an awake day today!

Now it's time for the videos! Up first is Evelyn's Birthday video. Then, sledding!
