Summer Outdoors

When Sorin was born in August 2008, time flew by and it quickly turned to winter and the cold months. This included bundling him up in snowsuits and cute hats. Both Katie and I looked forward to the summer months of both an older age and outdoor activities.

That time is upon us and Sorin is an outdoor enthusiast! Often when I come home Katie will have Sorin in his stroller next to her as she's tending to her flowers and garden. One day she had him on a blanket as she was watering the yard. Soon Sorin figured out the fun he could have if he put his hand over the water, spraying himself and Katie.

As Sorin learns to crawl, most of you have seen him go up on all fours (off his knees) to move around. He now does this on the sidewalk and driveway. As Katie and I continue our training, Sorin enjoys our runs from his stoller. While he used to whine and need either food or his nuk, he now sits and observes the town as he cruises through it. On our run today, I told Katie that when he learns to ride his bike with us, he'll figure out that it might be nicer for him if he could return to the comforts of his stroller - not happening, by the way.



Oh, did I mention that he loves watermelon?
