Spring Is Coming

In honor of the snow melting and the crocuses popping up in our front yard here are a few things I'm looking forward to in Eli's first spring/summer. :: Taking him for his first bike ride. I've heard if you do it right you can secure car seats in a pull behind trailer and I'm looking forward to letting him feel the wind in his hair (however thin it may be). This weekend we'll introduce him to bikes at Madison's annual Bike-O-Rama. :: I've already started, but running with him in the stroller will be great. It's a great way to put him to sleep and lets me run in the middle of the day when it's light out. :: Taking Eli out and about without a coat or hat. No hat and coat will make putting him in the car seat much easier. :: Letting Eli lay around the house in his diaper. I'm convinced he likes life in his underwear better than with clothes. Also, if he never wears clothes it's less laundry! :: Planting a garden with him. He can sit and watch us plant, weed, and harvest. Maybe we'll even grind up some of the veggies for him. :: Making our first family visit up to Duluth and of course a ride on the back of Grandpa Cole's lawn tractor. :: Taking him to an event at the farm we buy vegetables from. He could pick corn at the corn boil, basil at pesto fest, peas at the pea pick, or maybe a pumpkin at the pumpkin pick. :: We're ready summer.
