Day With Maw Maw and Dukie

On this very rainy day, Sean and I met Maw Maw and Dukie at a tile store to help pick out new flooring for their new house. Sean tested the floors by driving his toy cement truck on them. Then, we headed to Sean and Maw Maw's doughnut shop (they go there together on some Sundays while I'm at RCIA). They were out of glazed doughnuts (the only kind that Sean will eat), so we found some at our local bakery. After breakfast, we went to the new house and Sean got to run around and play while we talked to the contractor. Sean had a great time!

Oops!

After school, Sean and I went to see the progress on Maw Maw and Dukie's house. Sean was squealing when he saw the builders and the backhoe actually moving dirt. He waved to the driver. It was really cute.

Later that evening, Maw Maw and Dukie came by to see the progress on their house and picked up me and Sean to drive around and look at brick samples (lots of fun, I know....but Sean loves riding in their car). Dukie wanted to get Sean ice cream at Sonic, so we got out of the car and sat at an outside table. As we were getting up to leave, Sean and I got up 1st and then watched in shock as Maw Maw and Dukie simultaneously rolled to the ground in slow motion. Once we discovered that they weren't hurt, we all couldn't stop laughing. If only we had it on video.

Builder Sean

Dukie put him in the dozer
He's thinking, "now, if I could only reach the pedals"

Sean loves all building equipment. He gets excited when he sees any type of construction equipment and yells out the names to me. "Hey, mommy, that's a bulldozer", "that's a grader", "that's a tractor".

Maw Maw and Dukie are building a house near us and they took Sean to visit the work site where he got to sit on a bulldozer
