Beach days

Coleman and I went to check out the local lake at
Oak Mountain State Park. He loves playing in the sand and dirt. He was very brave getting in the water walking in (with my help) almost to his chest. He is learning to kick as well while swimming. Before hitting the beach we did a short hike. The woods here are so beautiful! Coleman loves to hike with me too. When the path gets flat and even he'll pat my shoulder and say "Down" because he's ready to hike. He hikes well, stepping over roots and rocks, saying hi to all the trees, and helping me find ditches. He loves saying this new word: ditch.

The other picture is of Coleman eating. He will often shove more food in his mouth than he can handle. As you can see his mouth is already full and he's ready to add another cookie in.

I enrolled Coleman in a Parents' Day Out program at a church 4 blocks from us. He will go there Tuesday and Thursday mornings. I am excited for my time to myself and for Coleman to be able to play with other kids his age. This program starts in September.

The hiking sounds like fun! Must be funny to hear him say 'ditch'. :) Este
