Then, the next week, we searched out a construction site.
HeyYea held up Daniel so they could see over all the dirt. Big earth-moving equipment always makes a man's heart pump a little faster. |
One of my favorites--this picture! |
Lots of big, colorful machines make lots of noise. |
To get a break from the wind, D stayed with me in the back of the car for just a minute. |
Don't you just love boys?! |
Daniel studies a big yellow digger and a blue dump truck. |
This past Friday, we chilled at home. Literally. It was actually cool enough to wear jackets, at last. A beautiful, bright blue, sunny day gave us lots of time to explore outdoors in the neighborhood.
The next Dr. Bingham finds that a shovel is an important supplement to his stethoscope and blood pressure cuff. |
Somehow . . . all the sand is missing from the sandbox. Hmmm. So we filled it with rice, popcorn, and macaroni for scooping and sorting. |
HeyYea needs more popcorn in his cup. |
While we played in the sandbox, we could hear the garbage truck coming closer and closer. So, of course, we had to go explore.
Dr. Bingham takes his blood pressure cuff and stethoscope to the front yard. Never can tell when you'll need them. |
The worker with the crew cut and boots always talks to Daniel on Fridays. He works hard too. |
Bye Bye, Moco! Everyone waves. |
Check out this red iron and lumber! We saw men on ladders, really high up. We saw them raise a wall and secure it in place. But I didn't take any pictures of them-- not without their permission. |
At the corner of the street with the house under construction, there was a scarecrow that caught Daniel's eye. |
She was just his size. Do you suppose she likes doctors? |
This sunflower goes round and round. "Roda, roda, roda," Daniel says. |
HeyYea provides a little support for walking on rocks. |
Fascination |
So, how does it work? |
Here's a good picture of my latest project-- I painted birdhouses and hung the village on our fence. |
Some birdhouses came with us from Chappell Hill, and some came from Hobby Lobby, WalMart, and The Dollar Tree. It was fun to go crazy with the paint. |
Daniel and HeyYea get up close to see better. |
