Happy May Day 2011!


Nothing like starting one's morning off with a little naked train ride ;)
 This past weekend marked the end of April and beginning of May. Saturday was a beautiful, sunny and warm day which we spent at Rock Bridge park- Kieran's first time there! He loved all the "tracks" a.k.a. trails and paths. We ran up and down the paths for over an hour, following strangers, picking up rocks, looking at the water and most of all pretending to be a train- so in other words a wonderful way to spend a day at the park!
Kieran decided to share his breakfast with his "deet-deet" a.k.a squirrel which isn't actually a child's stuffed animal, but rather a dog toy that Kieran has adopted.

More time spent loving and feeding the squirrel and watching Thomas before we leave for the park.

Mommy and Kieran going up some of the many, many, many stairs at RB park. Kieran did great with all the walking and stairs, but he did request to be carried from time to time which of course I was happy to oblige.

Kieran checking out a construction area on a landing that looks into the natural rock bridge, the park's namesake.

Conductor Kieran inspecting the tracks and making recommendations... Kieran discovered a crack in the track (a rotten spot on one of the wooden landings) that he thought needed to be repaired. He inspected and then decided to call for Sir TopHat (Sir Topemhat from the Thomas books) to help him with the task. He run up and down the boardwalk calling and looking for help- it was so funny!

"Help!!"
