This post is very late, but I had so many cute photos I couldn't not post them. Plus these pictures capture Nixon's first experience at a park.
I have many fond childhood memories of going to the park, and once I had my own kid I couldn't wait till they were old enough to experience the joys of the park.
Nixon's very first park experience was shared with his park veteran cousins, Ben and Clara. They were happy to show Nixon the ropes of the park. This was a small park so they didn't have swings but they did have a cool swirl slide for Nixon to try out.

| Here we go! |
 |
| It has been a LONG time since I went down one of these slides. I don't remember it being such a tight fit. |
 |
| He looks a little unsure about what just happened but trust me he enjoyed it! |

 |
| I love the captured picture of Ben! Nixon is looking very cute as well. :) |
 |
| Partners in crime, and so darn cute! |
 |
| Isn't that the sweetest photo! |
 |
| Apparently Nixon was enjoying the moment more than Clara... |
 |
| Free at last. |
 |
| Checking out all the pretty yellow leaves |
 |
| Pretty soon Nixon will be able to run down the hill with Ben and Clara |
 |
| But for now he'll just play with more leaves. |

| My sister-in-law was sweet enough to take photos of my kid while I played with hers. :) |
She's better at taking pictures than I am anyway.
 |
| See, what did I tell you! Amazing photo by Megan! :) |
Nixon's first park experience was such a success I have been anxiously wanting to take him again! I noticed we have quite a few parks around our apartment but none of them have swings! How is that possible? So I asked a friend of mine if she knew of any good parks with baby swings, and she told me of this awesome park about 15 min from our place. This place was huge!
 |
| Look how excited he is. |
 |
| First experience with the swings. |
 |
| He looks a little nervous about this whole swing thing. :) |
 |
| Sorry this picture is a little blurry but SO cute I couldn't help but post it. |
 |
 |
| LOVE! |
 |
| He had a hard time holding his head up. |
 |
| Seems like he's enjoying it. :) |
 |
| SO |
 |
| MUCH |
 |
| FUN! |
We decided to check out the rest of the park.
 |
| Practicing his alphabet |
 |
| This slide isn't as fun to go down with mom. |
 |
| Now going down by yourself is FUN! |
 |
| Playing the pipes |
 |
| our little muscle man |
 |
| Playing some music with dad |
 |
| Having SO MUCH FUN! |
 |
 |
| This park was amazing! To bad we didn't find it until the beginning of winter. We'll for sure be back once the snow melts! |
