Week of March 4 - The Park!

Well, after a few lingering cool days, it warmed up again over the weekend. So this was a perfect time to take Emily to one of our local parks for some fun and exploration. Emily loves outdoor adventures, and so she was definitely up for an outing. So off we go on a short drive to the nearby park for some family adventure.

Getting to the far side of the park (where all the action is) is definitely a stroller ride for our Princess......

Checking out the duck pond with Mommy.....

And, getting a closer look at the ducks is always a fun thing.....

Emily is getting a good look at some of the greenbelt at the park....and we have to watch her as she is a "runner".....

Next we went to the swings and rockers....because no visit to the park would be complete without some daring riding adventures.....

Enough with the rocking whale ride...swing rides are way more fun....

And swinging can be a friendly competition too...go Emily go!! :)

After the swing rides were over....it was time to work those little toddler steps for a while...up the steps...down the steps....rinse and repeat.....

Last, but certainly best....time for a finale ride on Dada's shoulders...and another change to admire the ducks before heading back to the car :)


And to round off the adventure, off to home we go...where Emily quickly crashes for an afternoon nap to rest up from all the fresh air and adventure.

More Emily adventures again next week, so come on back soon. :)

I bet she only has to point that little finger briefly to make Daddy get a move on! How sweet she is (and I love her bright yellow sweater) it looks like you had a great day at the park.

"We've got a runner!" Isn't that one of the lines they're airing of that new Wedding Bells tv show? Too cute that you said that about Miss Emily.

So cute! This outing reminds me of a similar one with my nephew, he was feeding the geese and they knocked him down, apparently we aren't at the top of the food chain !
Take care, Lin
