A Trip to Winton Woods with a Baby

On Saturday we decided to spend the beautiful afternoon at Winton Woods. We packed the car with all kinds of fun things...the stroller for a walk around the lake, the Baby Bjorn for a possible walk in the woods, the basketball, the volleyball, the tennis rackets, the frisbee, water bottles, the diaper bag, and of course, the baby. We drove to the park in much anticipation for our fun family day. I pushed Mr. Mister in the stroller as I took a walk around the lake while Mark relaxed by the boathouse. Then it was time for Marcos to eat and he was fussy, so we got back in the car and drove home. As we unpacked the trunk full of all of our fun things, we laughed at what high ambitions we had....oh well, another day maybe we'll be able to do two fun activities at the park.

so funny! it's amazing how your expectations change with a kid. just getting out the door and to the park is an adventure in itself. and you know if you didn't bring all those other things that you would have needed them. i hope you had fun anyway, even if it was a little less adventurous than you thought.

Look on the bright side...at least you did 2 fun things! And, perhaps if you really thought about it, the getting ready part was also part of the fun.
