Week in Review
Written on August 25, 2006 by Rylan.
Ya know, not too much has gone on this past week. I have mainly just been working on my standing and eventually walking. I haven't really taken my first step just yet but I will soon. Mom and dad encourage me but I need just that.. courage. It's just a matter of time though. It's going to be really funny to see mom and dad's face when I take that first step. Oh boy oh boy.
Remember that BuggyBagg that my dad mentioned a few months ago? Well it broke. One of the clippy things broke in the back but dad talked to them and they are sending out some replacement parts so that's good. Apparently its a fairly common issue so if anyone you know has a BuggyBagg, you may want to get a replacement part just in case.
We went to the park yesterday and I had my first try at a swing. I have mixed reviews on it. At first, I didn't mind it and I liked daddy playing with me but a little bit after that I began to get worried. Maybe I shouldn't look down next time. We checked out some of things at the park but they only had slides. It wasn't that good of a park. Daddy needs to hunt for the ultimate park!
I guess that is it for this week. I think we will be going to see my great-grandparents this weekend so that should be fun. I know that they get a kick out of it when they see me. Have a fun weekend.
Sorry to hear the park wasn't much fun.
I think that every city should have detailed
listings of all of their parks, as well as quality photographs of each parks amenities and an actual physical address with general directions.
With ?school age? children (ages 5+) being in school all day, parks made specifically for them go to waste most of the year while younger children and babies often don?t have anywhere to play. I believe most cities don?t have many baby friendly / accessible parks and most parks in general only have a few baby swings, but no other place for babies to play. Since many parents are now deciding to be stay-at-home parents, it?s necessary that cities increase their number of baby related play areas at their parks so everyone has a place to play at any age. Especially since now most homeowners associations frown on many backyard playthings such as swing sets because they show over the fence or take up too much room in the back yard; even though the home owners association went against building a park and built a tiny, only open 4 months a year pool. I also think more special needs / handicapped parks or park accessibility is needed too.
