Friday I took Alex to the neighborhood park. It's actually a playground at the neighborhood school a few streets up from our house. When we approached the school grounds I saw that there were many kids out playing. As I got closer, I heard some of the pre-teens using language that just wasn't acceptable for me!! As I carried Alex's stroller down the steps I'm thinking in my head how I'm going to shut these bad mouthing kids up so I don't have to hear their nonsense!! Thankfully as I get closer another mother with her 5 year old daughter spoke up and asked them to stop with the language!! I was so glad because I didn't want to be the one to confront these obnoxious kids, but would have if need be... Note to self, if you want to meet new moms - the park is the place to go... Had a nice conversation with the Mom who ran the bad mouth pre-teens away from the swings!!
Saturday I took Alex to the mall to get some new clothes! He was having a great time looking all around until he got extremely tired, and extremely fussy. Of course he had to poop so I had to use the public restroom for the first time!! Thankfully our mall has very nice & clean "family lounges" so it made the whole experience much better for me! I took him to the kids area at the mall and he was able to walk around and look at the other kids playing. By the time I had him buckled up and car in drive, Alex was knocked out! Of course he didn't stay knocked out for long so we spent the majority of Saturday outside. This weather is just amazing you can't help but stay outside!! Jason installed a new storm door which gives us so much more sunlight and fresh air!! We cooked out on the grill and I got to drink a little wine!!

Happy St. PADDY'S Day! |
Sunday, we once again took advantage of the beautiful weather and took a walk early in the morning! Alex must be getting more comfortable walking because he was talking more this time. He just sits back in the stroller and looks around. I point out the different animals and birds and try and imitate their sounds. I think he is more interested in my sounds than he is the actual animal. It was so nice and peaceful - everyone was still asleep and there was very little traffic to worry about! I cooked dinner and did some relaxing! Felt good to have a low key, nothing planned, weekend!!
