Stop and Go

Brad, Nolan and I went to the Richland Creek Greenway this morning! Fall is beginning to make his presence known in Middle TN, and I could not be happier. It is my favorite season after all! There was a cool breeze, crunchy leaves, and lots of treasures for Nolan to find.

This is usually what he looks life AFTER a good time, but he fell asleep on the way. I hated to wake that little face up :)


It took him a minute or two to wake up fully, but after that he was READY TO GO!



The first part of our trip we let him walk. We went about 5 yards in 10 minutes. He would stop to look at everything he found on the ground, so Brad swooped him up and put him on his shoulders. That was fun for Brad for about 10 minutes. We then opted for the stroller. That was fun for Nolan for about 10 minutes, so we let him walk again. And then we were back to square one. Stopping to look at everything!

In awe of the fence.

Found something interesting...a leaf, twig, or bug I am sure.

Almost made it to us

Yes, Brad and I popped a squat right there on the path. We had a nice little break in the shade while Nolan took him time catching up to us. He brought daddy a nice little twig and wanted to sit in his lap.

Daddy wanted sugar...Nolan did not!

He threw himself a little fit. This is his new pout pose. It is the funniest thing. I don't know where he picked it up, but he does this whenever he is mad, annoyed, or frustrated :)

And then he got over it

Found another twig and was in awe

The twig got old and boring, so he moved on to bigger and better things. He had a ball pushing the stroller around. Brad and I just sat there soaking up the good weather!
