New Trucks

2012-06-24

Daddy was sick all week with pneumonia, so I had to spend a lot of time taking care of him - it really cut into my playing time.

We went to visit Grandma Wynne and Grandpa Al this weekend because Grandpa's new truck was supposed to arrive - and it did!

What's in the box?

Is that in the box?

It's a little truck!

This button makes it go.

Daddy had to sit in the new truck, too.

Before we left we took a spin around the parking lot in the new truck - that was fun! Back at the house, I spent some time looking at the Mack catalog.

How can I get some of these wonderful toys?

On Sunday, Great-grandma Dorothy, Aunt Diane, and Uncle Milton came over - so I had to show them my new truck.

Let's drive.

In the afternoon, Great-grandma Darlene, Uncle Bradley, and cousin Max came over. We went to see some trucks that were on display at a park down the street.

The sun was really hot and I got tired really fast, so we didn't stay out very long. We missed the free ice cream that Daddy and Grandpa were looking forward to.

Our visitors went home, and then Mommy and Daddy packed up our stuff so we could go home. And that was about it for the week. Daddy is feeling better, so he'll be going back to work Monday - I'll be going back to playing full-time.
