We went camping at Lake Livingston for Mother's Day weekend. The weather ended up being really nice - we were afraid we had waited too long and it would be so hot but it turned out great. Max had fun. All he really wants to do right now is walk around so we kind of had to just follow him around the campsite.
Of course he's also at the stage where he wants to go where he wants to go so it's a problem if you try to change his direction. But he is very easily redirected most of the time - his little tantrums only last a few seconds.
Back to camping - we went on a nature walk with a ranger and walked some of the other trails too.
We went down by the lake and met a squirrel who was too friendly for me. He ate from Matt's hand and almost climbed in my lap!
We also took Max's picture on a tree that Matt's parents had taken Matt and his sister's picture on when they were kids. I tried to convince Matt to sit on the tree with Max but he wouldn't.
So it was a fun weekend and we're already looking forward to our next camping trip (which won't be until fall unless we go north!). It will be fun to see what Max is doing next time.
Another great part of the weekend was that when we got back Sunday, I got to go get a pedicure for Mother's Day and came home to flowers and a James Avery ring with Max's birthstone. It was a perfect Mother's Day! Thanks Matt and Max!
