It’s not exactly spring around here, but in Western Washington, one must take advantage of dry days or forever stay in the house. Sophia and I went to the part on Wednesday and Thursday. I put her in a pair of quilted pants that she received for Christmas to endure the winter wonderland that is Wiscaaannnssseenn. It helped absorb the water that was on the slide without her actually getting wet. Very nice.
She loved the slides and insisted that she also climb back up the slide.
On Wednesday, she became distracted by an older boy (about two and half or three years old) and followed him around much to his annoyance. He really wasn’t annoyed by her, he was more annoyed by the adult that followed her (me). I’ve only seen that sort of scowl on my own kid! Sophia stared at him on the swings for a while. I tried to put her in the swing next to his but she wouldn’t have any of that.
Thursday some older kids were there playing on the equipment. It didn’t bother Sophia. She sat there and stared at them running all around us. After a while, I decided to take a walk with Sophia so the kids could play on the slide that she was monopolizing.



What a great blog (especially the part about your baby leaking at both ends). Brings back some memories.
I have a 2 year old grandson who’s just starting to get into that “No” phase and a few other of those well known terrible two behaviors, and since it’s been over 20+ years since I’ve had a 2 year old around, I’m in search of some refresher courses on how to handle this little guy. That’s how I found your blog.
Sophia’s a doll! Thanks for the post on the park.

All Child’s Play – Thank you for visiting and leaving a comment. I hope my stories help you remember the toddler times.
We would have to slide on the snow on the slide….and knowing my son, he would stick his tongue on something….and get stuck…LOL!
elijahssong – Oh ouch! hehehe If you try the snow slide bring some warm water just in case there is a need to unstick the tongue.
Aww, it seems freezing out there. Sophia seems to be cold shaken but still enjoying the park

taking medicine´s last blog post..Contraceptive methods – How to avoid pregnancy
taking medicine – It was early in the morning so it was the colder part of the day, but I don’t think it was *that* cold. She really doesn’t seem to be affected by cold as much as I am. I think it’s a super power most kids have.
