Splash Pad

Melissa invited Blip and me to meet her and Connor at the Splash Pad at Rio Vista after work one day.  I was excited!  I had been wanting to take Blip to several splash pads while it was warm enough, but summer was spent mostly hiding inside after work because I was so tired I could barely function.  After working all day...and then being a single parent at night...I was just too tired most days to much of anything.  It took everything left in me to get Blip dinner and ready to bed.  So the evening out with Melissa was a nice, welcome change...for both me and Blip.

The boys played for a while and then we headed to McDonald's for Happy Meals.  Connor and Blip are exactly one year apart, so i would guess that in a year from now they will be able to play really well together.  It's fun to see Connor and remember where Blip was when he was that age.  It goes sooooo fast...and it's hard to remember all the little things.

Blip did slip and fall while we were there.  He likes to run...and does so even after being told repeatedly to walk.  It was good fall...his head hit the ground pretty hard and left a mark, but he was okay.

I hope next summer is easier to get out and do stuff in the evenings after work.  I will have two kids (which sounds CRAZY), but won't be pregnant, so we can get back to going to the park, splash pads, and the other activities Blip and I like to do together while Daddy is working.
