little boy BIG SHADOW

We went to the park today. Clark likes to ride (and push!) his new wagon. He got it from Jose and his uncle David for Christmas. It's pretty cute to watch him trying to get in by himself.






He likes to throw the ball backwards over his head. We're not so sure that will make him too popular in gym class, but I'm sure he'll figure out some day that historically, it's easier to aim when you can watch where the ball is going to end up. Of course, he did really surprise me today by actually dribbling the ball, soccer-style, down the hallway... so maybe he knows what he's doing after all!






Soon, however, playing catch was ditched in favor of exploring the wide open space! He just kept on toddling around to his little heart's content! No mommy telling him "no! no!" And he just laughed and laughed and laughed. Walking is SO FUN.






I'm not sure if he's really looking at his shadow, but I like to think that he is. It's not the first time that he noticed his shadow, but I didn't have my camera last time. Sweet boy.






Clark LOVES the swings. Remember, this is the child that likes to MOVE AT ALL TIMES. So, yeah, swings are great. Lots of laughing. Lots of smiles. But man, is it tricky to get a picture of that kid when he's swinging! Luckily, persistence paid off and my last two shots were in-focus smiles!

What great pictures. Once again I wonder why I am living in Utah. As I write this there is about 4 inches of snow on the ground and it is still falling! No trips to the park for us... :(

10 inches. There was 10 inches of snow that I shoveled off my driveway.

He looks like a little soccer player with his dang cute shirt on! i love that kids just love big spaces. We go to the gym on rainy days with a bunch of other girls... and the kids just run around the church gym for hours.

How fun! I wish I lived closer! It would be so fun to take our boys to the park. Turner loves his wagon too. Of course he hasn't seen it in months and there is no way we could get it through all the snow right now. How fun- it makes me excited for spring
