Park Days Ahead

I am sooooo glad the sunny weather seems to have finally hit us and will hopefully stick around for a while. The kids and I have been going to the park at least once a day and sometimes twice if it is just too nice to stay inside. I can't even begin to tell you how much better our day goes if we can get outside and play for a bit.

After Adrian's morning nap, I pack up our lunch and both kids and we head over to Bothell Landing (our new favorite) Choo-Choo Park, or Juanita Beach (if we need some variety) and spend the next several hours running, eating, sliding, swinging (Al's personal fav) or playing in the grass. Adrian is starting to crawl and loves picking through the grass for whatever goodies seem to have fallen from the sky. I actually try to keep his binki in during this time as it deters him from sticking to many yuckies in his mouth.

It is definitely a challenge keeping them propery sun screened, but so far they haven't burned so I must be doing a good job!

I am starting to get so excited about our move to Issaquah (we found a townhouse style apartment with attached garage) that we will be moving into mid June. The complex has 3 parks within walking distance, as well as a coffee shop, a few restaurants and other misc shops. Woo hoo!!! No more unnecessary driving just to get outside!!! I'm looking forward to having lots of room to walk and play without having to load everyone up in the car. Hopefully it turns out as great as I imagine it to be!
