A Long Wonderful Walk

Matt has been studying non-stop, 6 days a week, 10 hours a day in preparation for his boards next week. Through it all he has stayed calm and relaxed and comes home each night to take me and Beckett on a walk, make us dinner, give his son baths, read to him and put him to bed. He is such a good daddy and is so helpful after his long days. We were extremely happy to have a full day with him last Saturday and we took full advantage of it.

Saturday was finally a beautiful day so we decided to start walking on Springwater trail and head around the waterfront, which we later found out was a 10 mile trek! Thank goodness we took lots of relaxing stops and packed a delicious lunch.

Beckett had quite a fun time himself and was very happy the whole time. He will soon learn that his parents are bad at estimating how long hikes, runs, walks, etc. are and we just keep going and going...

This is Beckett intensely practicing holding his head up.

Doesn't he look evil!
