It Feels Like Summertime!!

Last week, the weather was just beautiful. Everyone was outside and the park was packed with kids. We like to take Kellen to the park everyday (weather permitting) as he really is starting to enjoy playing and hanging out with the other kids. Here are some pictures from last week....they are naturally in reverse chronological order!

Kellen is now brave enough to go down the slide all by himself! Here is daddy setting him up to go down the slide to mommy!

But just before he went down the slide, a little girl started talking to him from the bottom of the stairs....he didn't mind the distraction since she was blonde (and he has a thing for blondes!).

....another distraction...a dog. Kellen loves to look at, and try to touch, any dog he sees. I love how little he looks while he is crouched down.

..and back up the stairs for another turn on the slide.


Without a doubt, Kellen's favourite thing to do at the park is to be on a swing. He could spend the whole time swinging away and watching the other kids play. Whenever you hold the swing and then let go, he gets a huge smile on his face!

Climbing some weird thing at the park and being distracted by another dog...here he is doing his dancer's arm while pointing to the dog.

...and hanging out with daddy....

...and hanging out with a stick....Kellen loves to pick up sticks and rocks. He will sit and play with them forever, and then he carries them home with him...very cute!

"Hey, pass to me, I'm open!" Kellen loves to watch the older kids playing basketball...he just wants to get right into the game with them.

...."well, what do we have here....basketball - I'm in!"

Here is Kellen noticing the big kids playing basketball and has decided to make a beeline straight into their game.

Since it was soooo nice outside last week (a high of 22 degrees!) we decided it was time to try out our new shorts outfit! Kellen just loves going outside, so it was nice to get him into some of his summer clothes!

Later that day, we went to check out our new home that is being built...Kellen approves of the neighbourhood!

Yay for springtime! Kellen's super cute at the park, and just in general, too!
