We went to the Park!!!!

Today was a really gorgeous spring day after alot of rain and we went to the park. Clay loves the outdoors and to go bye bye. As you can see he really enjoyed the swing. We had fun pushing him and watching him laugh and smile and watch us. Matt also took him on the slide of which he wasn't quite sure of. The thing is, though, he and Matt were only going to slide the one time and when we let Clay walk back to the car, holding our hands of course cause not doing it by himself yet, he turned us around and went right back to the slide so Matt took him down once more before we headed back home. Tonight is a work night for Matt so couldnt stay out long but we plan on going back in a few days when Matt has time off. We are also talking of maybe a trip to the zoo. He is waking once a night and that isnt bad at all. I am in the process of reading a book called "Health Sleep Habits, Happy Child" by Marc Weissbluth, M.D. and Matt and I are seriously considering once I finish to put it to use and implement it to get Clay to sleeping through the night. We will still have to see because we will both have to be on board for it and Matt isnt so sure. Well, that is all for right now. Please be praying for Teresa also as she is waiting on word to go pick up her son from Vietnam.

What is it about swings and slides! Big time favorites for us too! So glad to hear Clay is only waking once a night. That is really lots of progress in a short time. I know....it seems like forever for you! Hang in there. I have also heard great things about the book you are reading. Happy Easter to you all.
