Daddy put shoes Andrew's shoes on. This was the pair that was left for Nathan to wear. Hmmm! Andrew didn't complain that his shoes didn't fit. I wonder if he's worn that pair before.
Aunt Becky suggested that we make a progress chart for the boys to encourage their potty training. The boys, especially Andrew loved the idea. Right after a successful trip to the bathroom, Andrew would ask to drink more water. He had made the connection that drinking water made more frequent trips to the restroom necessary. After the boys woke up from their nap, I hurried them to the restroom. They noticed there was another chart on the wall. Andrew figured out that it said, "Grampa."
We took our three boys out to dinner. The twins rode in my car to the restaurant. Andrew was watching out the window and asked if we were going a different way. We explained that we were going to a restaurant in Waudonda. Andrew said, "You live in Mundelein. I live in Lake Zurich." Nathan spoke up and said, "I live in Lake Zurich too, with my Mommy and my Daddy."
At the restaurant, Ryan Joseph discussed with the boys what they'd like to eat for dinner. Nathan understands the custom of ordering and explained to his father that he wanted a cheeseburger (and held up one finger) and chicken fingers (and then raised another finger). He said, "Two things," as he shook his two fingers to make his point. Later, they ordered water with lemon, just like Gramma's. They also tasted and enjoyed clam chowder and lobster ravioli. Nathan completely devoured his ice cream by lifting his dish and drinking the last drop.
Even without a Playland, this place is pretty good.
Just what I ordered vanilla. It's Grampa's favorite, too.
I think there's another drop at the bottom.
No doggy bag necessary for the ice cream.
Four more stickers were earned while at the restaurant. I don't know how many Grampa earned there.
