Fun at the Park

We met my family at the park this past weekend for a picnic.

It was a beautiful, warm day!

This was Nathanael’s first time on the swings!

He needed some back support…like a little Leah bug.

She had been swinging a lot higher when Grandma was pushing her by herself.

So, she wasn’t all too thrilled to be going at a slower pace.

Smile with tongue out

He’s not quite sure about this…

Ready! Set! Go!

He smiled for us mostly and not so much for the camera. Winking smile

No crying though! I think it was a success.

Leah was happier when she could go fast!

After our picnic, we went to ride the train. All of us!

This is only half of our party.

Along with my sisters’ family, my aunt, cousin, brother and his girlfriend were all aboard too.

We took up the front of the train.

Nathanael had fun with Daddy but wasn’t too sure about the train whistle or the tunnel.

Surprised smile

 

…all in all, a wonderful time with people we love!

Growing up!

I can’t believe how much my little man has changed in such a few short months.

I was looking through photos of the early days.

Look at how small he is in these pictures above.

And now…

…he’s growing up!

He is almost four months old.

WOW.

He’s my beautiful boy.

Nathanael is rolling over like it is no big deal.

He is strong!

He is making adorable noises and likes to giggle.

He smiles. Those really never get old.

He reaches for his toys, holds them, and plays with them.

He likes putting things in his mouth (like his toes).

He LOVES to stand with our help.

He likes to bounce in our arms.

He likes kisses.

He likes to cuddle.

He squeezes our faces.

I feel like he is doing something new every single day.

Before you know it…

I’ll be sending this boy to college.

Ok, ok…not quite yet!

Winking smile
