Getting out of the house!

How we keep ourselves busy in the house

Still being under 6 weeks postpartum, I haven't gotten the chance to do much these days.  I cannot exercise yet (though I'm dying to!) and find it hard to get out during the day between nap schedules and a newborn who is constantly hungry.  The first few months are always the toughest, and I've been aware of this for awhile.  

But whenever we have the chance, we get out of the house.  Whether that be for a walk and a trip to the park, or just in the front yard.  I'm finding more and more fun things to do at home so big brother can get some much needed learning play in.  

This weekend, we headed out to a Japanese park, Comprehensive, to burn some energy.  Zach loves the park and is getting to be such a big boy climbing everything.  We love going with him and we had a great time.  We even brought a lunch and had a picnic by the lake with the ducks.

We had a great time and I love these family outings.  It's great for Zach to get out and play and we all know Mommy and Daddy enjoy the fresh air!
