Now and Then

We recently went to one of our favorite fall places, the paved walking trail at Barren River Lake Resort Park. It is perfect for families who have to rely on a stroller for all or part of the walk. Plus, it is beautiful in the fall. The walk is mostly shaded and super peaceful. We discovered this little gem last year when Lylah was under 2 months old. We went a few times for picnics and walks. In those days Lylah slept as Nathan and I just watched her, thinking about how new and exciting every little move she made was.


Well, at our most recent visit, approximately a year later was much different. We didn't pack a picnic, but we did walk for a while stopping with our little lady to investigate pine cones and leaves. We let her walk and help push the stroller. When we finished our walk she promptly signed "playground" and started "ooohing and ahhing" at the nice play set they have. Lylah played and Nathan and I played along thinking how much she had changed and how we have enjoyed every single moment of this past year with our lil' lady.
