Tuesday was a snow day. After playing superheroes for a while, Steve & Zeeke trekked out into the snow for a play date with his pal Zoe. The kids made a family of rocket puppets and then put on a show. On the way home, Zeeke stopped to help a total stranger shovel his sidewalk.
Thursday, while Steve & Karen were out to dinner, Nick & Nadine had Zeeke over for a play date and dinner with Zoe. Zeeke ate baked cod and smoked salmon, two new foods for him, which he actually liked!
Friday was St. Patrick's Day. Zeeke's school had a party and almost everyone wore green.
Saturday Karen & Zeeke went to gymnastics class with his pals Zoe & Delano.
Sunday, Zeeke mentally combined two different crafts he'd seen in one of Karen's magazines and decided he wanted to make penguins out of toilet paper tubes. While Karen & Zeeke played, Steve ran out to pick up some black and white paint (and a few bargain activity books). They hot glue gunned the penguins together and Zeeke painted them like a pro. While the paint was drying, they took a quick trip to the snow-covered playground.
Conversations with Zeeke:
Zeeke, pretending to be a teacher:
"Okay, children, so when Green Arrow was a little boy he used to watch videos on his computer of Jackie Robinson. So when he grew up, he decided to dress all in green and shoot a bow and arrow just like Jackie Robinson. And one of the arrows was a boxing glove arrow."
Crying mad at Steve because he gave claws to the giant robot crab that Zeeke told him to draw:
"He was so cute until you drew those claws! Why did you draw them? They are not cute! Not cute at all!"
