Yesterday turned out to be a gorgeous day to play outside. We’ve been hesitant to take Adalyn outdoors too much because every time we do her nose starts to run like a waterfall. Luckily her nose didn’t bother her once during our little outing. We arrived at the park around 9AM or so and there wasn’t a soul around. We felt like we had hit the jack pot. We had the whole park all to ourselves. When the first family did finally show up, about 10 minutes later, we asked them if the park is usually this dead. They told us that no, it’s usually packed by this time, but the Jonquil Festival must be keeping most of the families away. Adalyn ended up having a blast. She spent most of her time running around and exploring, looking, and touching every nook and cranny of the playground. When more kids showed up, she would try running after them, give up, then watch in awe as they run across the swinging bridges, climb up the rock wall, and spin around on the sky whirl. After a good 30 minutes of non-stop playing, Adalyn looked like she was getting tired. She managed to “walk” to the car but as soon as her head hit the car seat, she was OUT. She must have hibernated a good hour and a half afterwards.
