Story Park

We went to a new park this morning, Story Park in Meridian. It is on the corner of two busy streets, not that that's a problem, it was actually a benefit! We had big semis and dump trucks pass by often, on their way to the freeway. Unlike other places where you can just hear the trucks pass on the street but not see them, at this park you can see them. And there were a lot of them!

We have a mat on our front doorstep that says "Welcome". Whenever we leave the house, Nico crouches down on the mat and points to each letter until we recite it for him.

This evening we passed time by going to the library, then parking downtown and walking around a big city block. When we got back to our car there was a fire engine passing by. No lights flashing, just cruising. They slowed down and waved at Nico, who was pointing nonstop at them.

Slides

A picture of Nico and me on the slides at "Old Park". My cousin Sarah came with us and she is the one who took this picture.

Park and Sprinkler

We've been making a lot of trips to the park recently. Nico also has been enjoying playing with the sprinkler head in the front yard.

Anne Frank

Today was a full day. This morning Nico and I went grocery shopping. After his nap we went to the library. Before we went into the library we visited the Anne Frank memorial. There are waterfalls and walls with quotes written on them.

After dinner I took Nico to the fish park and to the playground right next to it. He enjoyed going down the tube slide head first.
