WATCH: Baby Tunnels Through Shaw Park
Micah and I spent some time recently at the Clayton park's inclusion playground. It proved to be good exercise for both of us. You can be the judge as to how it affected my son's hair.
In an effort to give my wife some time to herself, Micah and I took a guys' outing to on Saturday.
I thought he might enjoy visiting the and taking a walk around the area. It proved to be a good-mood sort of day, so he giggled for most of the car ride down Interstate 170.
When we arrived, I popped him out of the car seat and into his umbrella stroller. We trekked over to the playground, where lots of youngsters—most older than him—were busy frolicking on the faux trees, slides and swings.
I sat Micah on top of a ledge to gauge his feelings about the place. He gazed around in wonderment.
Yup. Right decision.
During our visit, we played on the swings, climbed through a tunnel (well, Micah did) and traveled up and down on the seesaw.
Afterward, we spent a good period of time walking through the park. We stopped at to watch a few minutes of a baseball game between and, I think, schools.
We found a backhoe along one side of the park. I placed Micah's stroller in front of it and photographed the two together. He's all boy, after all.
Then we went home and had lunch. It was a great day to be outdoors.
