No better way to spend a Saturday
Apr. 25th, 2009 08:58 pmWell, the day started out a bit rough. For whatever reason, I have been terribly clumsy lately (more so than usual, I mean - seriously, O's about to start calling me Bella!), and this culminated in me snagging my foot on the babygate as I climbed over it with Buggie in my arms. Down fell the gate, the Bug, and me. I skinned my knee and acquired a few bruises, but neither Buggie nor the gate were any worse for wear, and off we went to start our day in the absolutely gorgeous (80s and sunny!) weather.
We spent the morning at Lollypop Farm, visiting with the animals. Bug got to pet a goat. :) From there, we went to test drive a Prius. To be honest, we hadn't thought there would be any Prii in our price range, but a local dealership had a 2003 model there for a few thousand less than our max. In the end, though, we decided it wasn't for us - largely due to the fact that in even the slight wind we were having today, it was being blown all over the highway as O drove.
When we got home, L had his nap (a couple of hours late) and I ran out for groceries. Then the three of us played outside until dinner time. There are pictures on our photo site. (Later, we'll have some from the farm too, but they're on O's phone and I don't know where that is.) L enjoyed pushing around his new riding toy; he hasn't quite gotten the hang of riding it, but he likes to walk with it, and O & I just enjoyed being outside.
Now we've had a lovely summery meal of hot dogs, pasta salad, and corn on the cob, and when O comes down from putting L to bed, there are strawberries, Cool Whip, and angelfood cake awaiting us.
It's been a great day! :)
