Mom's Messy Miracles: First Real Spring Weekend

April 7, 2014

First Real Spring Weekend

This weekend was crazy! We had so much to do and I love it!

Friday night was Opening Night for Little League.

Saturday we had pictures for Little League in the morning, then our first game in the afternoon.

Clearly, he was worn out. He passed out in the car on the way home (it’s only 10 minutes from the field to our house) and then proceeded to sleep for another 2 hours. The only reason he woke up was because we had a family gathering Saturday night.

Sunday we went to church, did our typical coupon shopping trip afterwards, then we headed to the Plumpton Park Zoo! We went with my mom and she purchased our zoo membership for the year (our Christmas present). This zoo is small but it’s great because it’s only 10 minutes from our house and you’ll spend about 1.5 – 2 hours there, which is perfect for a toddler!

Owen and I were there in our new BabyBjorn carrier. He loves it and it’ll be perfect for our zoo and baseball outings this year!

It’s currently raining, but we’re so happy the weekend was beautiful and filled with outdoor activities! Did you do anything fun this weekend?

  15. Wow! It is great to develop his love for sports at a very young age. I can see how he will grow up as a strong and happy person thanks to his responsible parents. :)
