his first picnic

The weather was beautiful again today.
So, after Levi’s nap I decided it was the perfect day for his first picnic.
We loaded up in the car and headed to the park.
We found a sunshine-y spot and spread out our blanket.
I think Levi thought it was pretty awesome to eat his lunch outside.
And I loved hangin’ out with my little guy in the sunshine.
I had torn off some pieces of Levi’s sandwich for him to eat…
because that’s what I always do.
But today he decided he could handle the whole sandwich.
He looked like such a big boy eating his big sandwich.
After we finished eating Levi had to check out the whole park.
He loves exploring and being outside.
I’m pretty sure he thought he was in heaven.
And he loved watching the other kids playing.
He could have stayed there all day.
I think there will be many more picnics and park dates in our future.
But before we went home someone thought he needed a snack.
It makes you really hungry when you play so hard! 🙂

  • Bailey - Did somebody go with you and take your picture?! If not, you are genius for taking timed photos (well, you’re genius anyway for getting the photo regardless). There are SOOO many adventures where it’s just me and my boys (thankful for hard working daddy, but sad when he can’t join in on all of the fun things we do) and so there are never photos of me with the kids. Way to go!ReplyCancel
