Exploring the park!

  Dustin and his buddies decided today was a nice enough day to go out to the park and throw around the baseball. I use to join them and throw the baseball around and catch it with my glove, but not anymore! I have a little boy to take care of, which is wonderful. To be honest I don't even miss that tiny thing I once did. Okay maybe I am lying, I do miss it, but once I see Dagney it escapes my mind.

  So we decided to walk to the park instead of driving. The park is so close, just up the street so why bother. Plus the weather was so nice and warm. A little breezey, but nothing we couldn't handle walking in. The fresh air for all of us was needed since we have been cooped up inside because of being sick and it raining for a week(btw, it is suppose to rain all of this week too. BOO!). We got to the park and just walked around while I had Dagney in the Ergo. He had fallen asleep and I know as soon as I either stop moving or sit down he usually wakes up so we decided to walk up and down the path way while we waited for the guys to get there. They did finally and by that time Dagney had woken from his short nap on me. I took him on the swings which for it being his third time, he actually really liked it. Then we decided to explore the two slides. One was like a ripple with a few pumps and the other one was one of those twisty slides. We went down them multiple times and he just had the biggest grin on his face every time. It was priceless and I am so glad he liked it just as much as I had. You know when I was pregnant I would imagine one day taking him to the park and having fun, I couldn't wait to do it and now we are! After that we sat on the grass and just hung out for a little while. He explored the grass, touched it, pulled pieces out and found a leaf. It was so interesting watching him try to figure it out. He is amazing! I always wonder what he is thinking and it would be such a neat thing if we could actually know what they are thinking when dicovering and exploring something new.

  It was such a great Sunday afternoon! I had a blast at the park with my little man. I can't wait to do it more once the weather is nicer.
