MMan is a climber. He shows amazing amounts of strength, but just won't walk. This weekend we were at a picnic and he climbed from the ground level all the way to the top of the picnic table. He was determined and kept going until he got there, with a lot of spotting. And at the top of Mt Table, all he got was a cracker. Later he got the watermelon!
I distinctly being on a mission, last June, to get my strawberries picked and frozen and jam made before MMan made his arrival. Little did I know that I would have plenty of time! This year June completely got away from me and while I thought about berries a couple times, it wasn't until HandyMan pinned it on the calendar that we went for our annual haul of strawberries. Sittster and GGirl had some fun with the flowers and it was much easier picking with MMan in the stroller, not a full term pregnancy!
The end of this week has finally brought some summer-like weather and it has been beautiful! On Thursday we gathered up Sittster and headed out for an outting. Caked in sun-block, we hit the park. The playground is much more fun (for me) with a one-to-one ratio for tracking the kids. So Sittster chased GGirl around while I tracked MMan. 45 minutes of running, climbing, swinging and chasing wore just about everyone out. After a couple errands we went to one of the local carousels for a ride before heading home. It was MMan's first ride and he was too tired to be impressed. Quite the fun afternoon!
