FALL


The Dwyer Patch is taking full advantage of the beautiful fall weather that has blessed us these past couple weeks.  We hit a park at least once a day and sometimes even twice a day.  We go to Hermann Park in conjunction with seeing the dinosaur’s at the HMNS.  We hit Garden Oaks park all the time because they have awesome play grounds that are perfect for a 3 year old and a 2 year old.  Candlelight Park is always our default for days we are not up for going very far.

There is a lot a child can learn through playground etiquette, for example sharing swings.  Logan completely understands that you have to take turns on the swings if there are other children waiting.  He does not always like it but he gets it.  Catherine is not a fan of this concept.  If her turn on a swing comes to an end by anyone’s choice aside from herself, she gets really upset.  We are working on this.

Logan loves to play “get me”.  It consists of me chasing him all over the park.  Upon his command, I become either an alligator or a shark and continue to chase him.  He could run for hours and hours if only his mom could keep up with him.

For the days we can't make it to a park, Logan flies us to various destinations
