A walk in the park

Drew is getting over his cold, so we thought some fresh air would be good for him. We (like everyone else!) decided to take advantage of our 60 degree day and head to the park on the lake. We pushed Drew in his stroller around the 1.5 mile trail. He waved at the other walkers and runners and saw lots of dogs. Then he got out of the stroller so he could get a closer look at the water and the ducks. He practiced some walking with Dad too.




Some other Drew News:

* He loves to throw a ball! He will hold it up and say "ba." He has a pretty good arm, but the release is a little late so it bounces real hard! He will try to throw it to us, and then he'll "catch" it when we roll it back.

* He skipped bottles for several days straight, and drank his milk from sippy cups! He's still a little messy, but got enough to satisfy his hunger.

* Most days he thinks just one nap is enough now. He'll act tired when his second nap is supposed to happen, but then he gets a burst of energy and holds off until bedtime!

* We've witnessed his first steps... if side steps count! He'll let go and stand on his own, and then step sideways 1-2 steps and sit. It's not "walking" yet, but he's getting braver!
