On Tuesday Bennett didn't take a nap. When we got home he watched part of Peter Pan. After he went to bed I made some peach jam. Unfortunately it only used a few peaches, hardly making a dent in what we had picked. I guess I still need to make lots more jams, salsa, peach butter, etc.
After school on Wednesday (no nap) Bennett played with his Duplos before dinner. He "made a place for a dog, a place for a cow, and a house."
No nap again on Thursday. It was camping week at school and Dianne brought in her camper. So exciting! It must have been a busy day because Bennett fell asleep on the way home from school.
On Friday Bennett finally took a nap. This worked out well because Grandpa and Susan came over for dinner. After we ate we were chatting about the Pinewood Derby, playing with LEGO/Duplo, etc. Bennett decided that my stagecoach needed some horses to pull it and some people to drive/ride.
On Saturday Daddy woke up with a fever. Bennett and I left him at home and headed off to Sturbridge for Textile Weekend. We happened to notice that Doc and Blue had broken a fence and were out of their yard so we tracked down an interpreter so that that could be fixed. Bennett helped fill the wood box at the farm but he didn't want to whisk eggs. It was interesting being there with just the two of us.
Bennett napped on the way home and in the afternoon I left him with Chris watching TV while I went out to do some grocery shopping.
Luckily on Sunday Chris was feeling a bit better, but we still stayed at home. I made peach salsa and peach butter (and I still have more peaches!). Bennett and Daddy went to the playground down the street and ran around for a while. Bennett did not nap. But before bed he also made up a song, "I love Farmer Boy. It has oxen and cows, and Star and Bright."
