On Tuesday (no nap) Bennett fell asleep on the way home. We did have to take a detour to extend our commute since we could tell that he was on the verge of falling asleep and we knew he needed the sleep. If we'd just gone home he wouldn't have been able to go to bed for an hour or two.
On Wednesday (no nap) Bennett must have been hungry. After eating a rather large dinner he asked for more food and ate a banana. He very seldom asks for additional food!
On Thursday (yes nap) he played outside briefly after school. I took the day off from work (I had extra vacation time) to work on his party.
Friday after school we went shoe shopping. He was very well behaved at the mall. When we got home he played in the backyard pretending to go to Kimball's. The swingset was the bumper boats and he also played mini golf and ate icecream.
In the morning I was being sluggish and didn't want to get out of bed.
Daddy: Telly Mummy to get up.
Bennett: Mummy, get up.
Mummy: mumble mumble
Bennett: She doesn't want to get up. She's still tired.
On Saturday at Sturbridge Dave and Rhys were cleaning out the cattle yard. Bennett didn't want to help at all! Daddy tried shoveling some manure, but nope, he still wouldn't try.
In the afternoon (after nap) we went to JoAnn's to get some items for the party, and when we got home Bennett watched Horton Hears a Who. He was just as emotional about it as last time, if not even more so. I think we may have to wait a long time before he tries watching that again.
On Sunday Daddy went in to work to work on the "set" for Bennett's party. Bennett started his morning by watching Fievel and then we went to Uncle Andrew and Aunt Gentry's to get some scrap wood for a project before heading off to do our grocery shopping. We attempted (and failed) a nap after lunch, and when Daddy came home we decided to go to Kimball's. We only did the bumper boats once, as well as one round of mini golf. We had bracelets that would have allowed us to do more, but we just weren't up for it. So after getting ice cream we headed home.
