Since Nick was occupied all weekend with the NATAS fair, Ben and Wendy offered to bring the munchkin out today to the Botanical Gardens, her very first picnic. They made sandwiches, and brought coffee, tea and juice and we parked our butts on the grassy field in front of the Symphony stage.
At one point it threatened to rain, but thankfully the weather held up. Don't think Nat really understood what a picnic was but she had fun soaking the sun, and seeing the fish and squirrels. She munched on cereal and biscuits and after about an hour or so, we packed up and decided to hit Vivo in search of shoes for Wendy.
On the way out, Nat got to pet a dog, I think that's another first for her. She was hesitant but the owner was patient.
At Vivo, we hunted high and low for shoes, and finally I found a store that had a wide selection. Wendy bought a Nike pair in the end, it was actually from the kids section but they had her size...was tempted to get the baby version Nat tried, but no point spending $55 on a shoe she will outgrow in months.
Nat liked to play with the shoes on display though, she started removing them from the shelves and attempted to try them on. Later on, she displayed her tomboy side by pretending to ride a Batman bike. Biker chick in the making?
