The pond park

After collecting rocks we headed to the pond park. Joshua loves to throw the rocks and and watch the splash. Will loves to watch his brother be crazy as Joshua throws the rocks in the water all sorts of different ways. I am really looking forward to Will being able to walk so we can enjoy the parks more. He hates grass, concrete and sand on his feet or hands so the park is not much fun for him. Enjoy the pictures!

A nice park

I found a cute little park about a 10 minute drive from our place (I think it is the closest park from our house). It has a lot to do and a little pond close by. I accidentally found it while I was garagesaleing and told Joshua we would go back one day so the 18th I made it happen. Joshua was so happy that we went to that park and said 'I hope to go there again'. It was too hot for Will to enjoy the park so we will have to make a lot of trips there in the Fall and Spring when it is nice and cool.

Park day

On the 27th of this month we were able to get to the park. Joshua loves going to the park and hates it when he has to leave. I am looking forward to more days of going to the park. Joshua's most favorite things to do at the park, as of late, are swinging and digging in the sand. He loves digging holes and enjoys watching me dig a hole. Simple pleasures. I am looking forward to our snow melting so we can go back to the park.

Joshua's 3 year check up.

Joshua and I went to his 3 year check up this morning. His doing great! He weighed in at 30 1/2 pounds, which puts him above the 25th percentile. He is 36 1/2 inches tall, which puts him in the 25th percentile. He is very proportionate and healthy. She said that he is right where he needs to be if not farther along developmentally. I think every parent enjoys hearing that. :) He doesn't need to be back for another year!! He is growing up way too fast.

Yesterday we took a walk to Washington park. It was so nice outside. I am loving my double jogger stroller and cannot wait to make more trips to the park. I am loving this wonderful weather. It is another nice day outside today. So nice that I didn't have my jacket on this morning. I think we will try to take another trip to the park or at least play outside for a little while this afternoon. I love being outside once again, it has been too long.

Here are some pictures of Joshua playing at the park. He loves to swing and slide. He really likes it when other people bring their puppies to the park so he can pet them.

Washington park

We spent a lot of time at Washington park last week so I thought I would take some pictures. I know Joshua loves the park and would spend all of his time there if he could so before winter hits I thought I would take him to the park a lot. I just need to make sure we are bundled up. Joshua is now able to climb on all of the equipment with out the help of me. Of course he likes me to follow him around, push him on the swing and catch him when he slides down the slide but I enjoy doing all of those things anyway.

On this day Joshua and I brought a picnic lunch and spread out a blanket to eat it on, it was a good day. I should plan a few more of these.
