Despite the record temperatures, we've managed to get out quite a bit this summer. And Harrison is having a blast!.
Harrison loves the park - particularly slides and swings. It seems like just days ago that he was clutching to the chains of the infant swing, and giving us cautious yet unimpressed looks as he swung a few feet back and forth. Now, he literally runs to the big boy swing, screams "swing", and demands a "push."
We've also discovered swimming - in the pool and even one dip in the lake. Harrison is a natural, and was particularly fond of walking backwards in the shoulder-high toddler pool.
In June, we traveled to Baldwin City, KS for "A Day out with Thomas." We were lucky enough to see a restored steam engine that had been customized to look exactly like Thomas the Tank Engine. Harrison loved sitting in the train seat like a big boy, and getting to play with all the other kids in a giant tent full of train tables. We have a feeling this may be a yearly trip for some time.
We're just trying to stay cool and have fun. Staying cool is a challenge, but having fun is never a problem with Harrison involved.
