So Peter has been having a difficult time lately with the transition from "only child" to "oldest child." He has been acting out and trying to get attention, and it's getting pretty frustrating for me. I have learned that things go better when he has stuff to occupy his time - he doesn't do as well when he has too much time on his hands to think about how to get himself into trouble! Now that the weather is better, we can spend more time outside. Peter LOVES being outside. In fact, he would live outside if I let him. Because my energy level is just not where it used to be and I get so sore from the outings that we have taken outside, I need a way for him to play and get his energy out here at the house. Andrew spent yesterday morning getting the backyard ready for Peter to play again. Peter was so happy to spend the entire morning outside! He ran around the backyard, helped Daddy weed the front flowerbed, and enjoyed some time at the park. Then we had BBQ for lunch (one of Peter's favorite things to eat!!) and enjoyed playing with the toys at a nearby toy store. Papa John even stopped by while we were eating to say hi and play with toys with us. Here are a few pictures of Peter enjoying the day!!
