Stories from Ohio Part 2: Playing in the Park

On Saturday we all (except Jon who was sick) headed to the park with the kids for a picnic lunch and some quality play time. What a hoot! Eli went in the baby swing at the park and loved it! He would giggle every time he lost his tummy on the swing, and would also sit in the swing contentedly and watch his cousins run around. Another favorite was this whale that kids could sit in (Eli just stood on the seat) and make wobble all around. I took pictures of all the kids playing together, but since this is our blog, I’m just posting pictures of Elijah. :)

Lunch Outside Tastes Better

Wobbly Whale, Oh What Fun!

All tuckered out . . .
After the park we went to the arboretum, saw beautiful flowers and walked on a nature trail. Eli was a little tired and not quite as happy there, but it was a long day for him, and a lot of time in the stroller. It was so nice to be outside though, and to have fun with the family. I think we definitely need to get a swing for Eli, though - he had such a ball on the one at the park!

Whee! I love swinging!
