Tuesday night Luke and I went to the April Parks & Rec Playgroup. The theme was taking care of Mother Earth. The first thing we did was to make "Trash Monsters". Luke enjoyed this immensely, and also enjoyed getting red marker all over his face. Fortunately they were washable markers and it came right off!

The finished Trash Monster.
Then we took the Trash Monsters outside to feed them (pick up trash and put it through the monster's mouth). This is Luke and his friend Lexie - she will be in the same class in school with Luke.
When we came back inside, we had a wonderful snack of blue ranch dressing (a pond), cucumbers (lily pads), and goldfish.
All the kids at playgroup.
Then Addie read us a story about ways to take care of the planet.
This week we also put boosters on one of our dining room chairs so that Luke can sit in a regular chair with us at dinner. It's an awesome product called a "Kaboost", and it really makes the chair more sturdy as well as raising it up. As you can see, Luke was very excited about being able to easily sit at the big table with us. We'll probably still use the high chair sometimes, but this will be nice for doing art projects as well as eating. He was also really excited about the placemat that I got for him a while back - it has his name on it, and he kept flipping it over and over again reading his name!

you are lucky Luke will sit in the booster. Paige is already refusing to use it and insists in standing in the chair instead!
