From today's walk

On most days when the weather is cooperating I usually go on a walk in our neighborhood with my little man in his stroller. It has been a nice little routine that usually induces a nap for him during and afterward.

Today I went around noon and it was a very unseasonably cool August afternoon in Oklahoma. I noticed some girls at the end of our block playing in the front yard. What caught my attention was their art work of sidewalk chalk all over their sidewalk and driveway. I asked them if I could take a picture of it and assured them I was trying to not be a creeper, but I really did liked their pictures. Tomorrow will be their first day of a new school year. They seemed to be soaking up the last few hours of summer. They were really sweet and asked about my baby and I asked them if they had art class at their school (no, they don't...for shame MPS). I know they were just drawing doodles, but I thought the pictures were pretty good, cute at least.

Yes, that would be Ariel, the mermaid and a Canadian flag. They also had a British flag on the sidewalk and lots more drawings, but I was trying to not come across as a creeper, so I did not get an incredible look at all of it.

Speaking of walks. Our little man is taking a few more by himself these days: from couch to couch, and across the room. Here is our best video of him walking from the couch to the rocking chair. This was taken on Tuesday and he has even gotten better since then.
