Hiking With Friends

Dear Sis,

In our quest to find kid friendly activities during quarantine we decided to get outside with friends and visit local parks.

Tuesday

We enjoyed a pancake picnic before hitting the trails at Woodsdale Regional MetroPark. We only made it about a half mile before we reached a place in the trail that was too washed out to proceed, but we enjoyed it so much we decided we needed to hike again!

Wednesday

We hiked a few miles of the Great Miami River Trail.

Thursday

We walked the trails at Rosemont Park! It’s a new go to destination… perfect for hiking with toddlers:)

We are excited to hike many more local parks this summer!

Love,

Montessori Floor Bed

Dear Sis,

We have a bassinet, a mini crib, and a full size crib. I’m not sure why. As a breast feeding mama, I’ve found co-sleeping is the only way to get some much needed rest. As a result, Charlotte also takes two naps in our bed throughout the course of the day. I’ve taken to building a pillow nest around her so she doesn’t roll off before I run upstairs to get her. Yesterday, she was so quiet, I didn’t hear her on the monitor before she fell off the bed.

Today, we decided to take the crib out of her room and use the queen size guest mattress to create a floor bed. In Montessori spirit we also made the rest of the room baby friendly for exploration. We still need a baby gate in the doorway. Daddy will install it for us:)
