Well, it’s taken 4 months for it to happen, but I’ve officially lost track of the days of the week!! haha.
Angelo, Nico and I have gone on a few outings, but I have no idea when (1 day ago? 14 days ago? I have no idea!!)
Did you know that the City of Ottawa maintains 247 outdoor rinks in the winter?? Angelo tracked down one of the better ones (well-maintained and smooth) and so we took our skates and the stroller out for a spin.
Ange practiced his trick shots while I just tried to stay upright! Actually, the stroller made it easy to keep balance, and Nico loved the fresh air (especially from under his piles of blankets).
Then the weather turned REALLY cold later this week and we had to find some indoor activities. We took Nico to the Plant Pool for his first ever swim.
Even though the water was nice and warm in the family pool, it was still a bit too cold for Nico. He only lasted about 10 minutes in the water before his trembling bottom lip gave way to full-on crying. Oh well, hopefully next week he’ll last longer.
In the meantime, we continue to go out for walks and attend some free playgroups in the area. Gotta fight against January Cabin Fever!
