Enjoying the Weather

Yesterday when Scott got home from work we hooked up our super deluxe stroller to the bike for the first time ever. Last summer Mason was too tiny for the stroller and by the time that he was big enough the snow was on the ground so we only used it to go for walks not bike rides. We decided to take Mason to the park and Scott pulled the trailer behind his bike while I nervously rode behind to make sure that the trailer didn't come off of the hitch. (About half way to the park I relaxed enough to ride beside the trailer so that Mason could see me.) We only took Mason to the park once last year in the fall when he was 4 months old (check out my September post) and this was really only for our enjoyment as he wasn't old enough to enjoy the experience. This year is a whole new experience and soooo much fun! He thought it was pretty neat to sit up in this little rocking bus like a big boy.
His absolute favourite thing about the park though was the swing! He was giggling and smiling the entire time that he was in it. He kept closing his eyes and laughing as the swing moved forward towards us almost as if he thought that he was going to crash into us.

There were lots of kids at the park and Mason was totally enthralled in watching them run around all over the equipment. Just after this picture was taken he (with Scott's help) walked over towards all of the action.
We are going to have to get a little swing for our backyard now!
