Bubblepalooza Park Day

This week is national bubble week and our MMoT mommy group had a park date today to play with lots of bubbles! It was at a park I haven't been to yet but I really loved it. Some playgrounds are just for older kids but this one had things that Peter could play with plus they were shaded so we had lots of fun! And it was in a beautiful part of town. Just take a look at the mountains in the background!



I caught Peter mid-step on this picture! He had fun cruising the playground.


Peter got distracted by the pool in the distance and went toddling away from me. He goes long distance now. I'd bet the pool was a good 50 feet away. He's also started turning corners!


The pool looked like so much fun! There were people swimming laps and Peter was trying to figure out a way through the bars. He could get his foot through but that was about it.


One of the playgrounds was sitting in a huge sandbox. Other kids brought sand toys that we were able to play with. (Birthday idea!)


For the first time I actually let Peter play in the sand. I have never really let him get down and dirty so that was big for me. He would dig his hands into the sand, get a big handful then pull his hand up to look at it. When he would open his fist up all the sand would fall out of it!! He didn't know what to think about that!


He spent alot of time crouching in the sand instead of sitting. Funny boy!


We found a bulldozer to play with!


Peter took the bulldozer out of the sandpit and drove it all around the sidewalks babbling.


There were a few bubble machines blowing bubbles that we could chase...there were a few too many other things to look at though.


Peter found the slide and spent about 5 minutes trying to climb UP it. Didn't work.


It was hard to climb all over the playground but it was just as much fun to play UNDER it.


Peter was exhausted at the end of playtime and fell asleep before we were out of the parking lot. We had lots of fun! We will have to play there some more. Maybe next time we'll take daddy to play in the sand with us! For now though it was time to head home and get a good bath!
