After staying awake until midnight and getting up before 6 a.m., I had to do something to entertain him while Anthony was at work. So, off to Sugar Hollow Park we went! Armed with hot dog buns, a cuppie full of juice and a bag of goldfish crackers, we were ready for anything. After just a few minutes in the wetland, we were greeted by several ducks. Hunter is a pro at duck feeding - his mom takes him to a nearby duck pond fairly often. Two of the ducks were quite brave and flew up onto the bridge we were on and ate out of Hunter's hand. At one point, Hunter stuck an empty hand out and was nearly eaten by the duck... it must not have bit hard because all he did was laugh.
So, with no hot dog buns left, we headed for the playground. After insisting on sliding with his bowl of goldfish crackers and spilling half of them, Hunter decided to take it easy on a bench. A bus full of middle school aged kids pulled up... and Hunter didn't want to share his crackers or his bench, so we headed home.
After Anthony got home, we had dinner (peet-see) and played with water pistols. Hunter cracked me up saying, "where my pistol?" We also had a fire in the fire pit. Hunter may be a little fire bug - he insisted on burning all the wood at one time.
Saturday, we hit the park again, our hot dog bun supply replenished... After making quick work of duck feeding, we headed to the playground again. This time, Anthony joined in on the sliding. During our hot dog bun run at Wal-Mart, Hunter spied a travel pillow that resembled a rabbit/donkey and had to have it.... and insisted on calling it "pig." Pig also liked to slide.
After lunch and one more round of Spongebob the Movie, we took the little guy home. He was pooped and napped on Pig the whole way home. Sure is quiet when he leaves... :/
