Day at the Park


A couple weekends ago we rode our bikes to a nearby park and spent the morning there. It was so so fun! The weather was beautiful. There is something about the seasons changing from summer to fall that just puts me in the best mood. This is definitely my favorite time of year- we get to be outside a lot and use our bikes, the bugs are leaving (so tired of finding them in my food in my cabinets!), and the holidays are just around the corner.  Here are some pictures from our day out.
Bubbles- usually a hit with the kids- as you can see here Will is asking for another cracker and ignoring the bubble. Basically these days his world revolves around the consumption of crackers and baby einstein videos. He starts asking as soon as he gets up in the morning.
They had these little motor boats (without an once of power steering- it was like bumper boats out there) you could rent in the park. Here is Will and Den driving the boat. 

GRASS!! I love when we get to be in the grass- living in a big concrete city this can be a rare occurrence.
Of course this park has its share of little kid rides. Will really wanted to go on this merry go round but of course once on it we couldn't get a good smile picture (the constant revolutions
adds a degree of difficulty)
 .
We weren't sure how Will would do with a picnic- he usually needs to be in a high chair to focus on eating- but he LOVED it. He loved the variety of food and loved getting to run off between bites and then come back for more.

Believe it or not this is actually Will smiling. He thinks smiling is synonimous with squinting his eyes.  (sorry couldn't rotate picture)

Me and my cutie!
