Lizards

I took Jack to a new park today. He was sick all last week and we spent 8 days in the house, so it was time to break free from these walls and get some fresh air.
The park was beautiful. Lots of trees, no street noise and tons of moms with 2 year olds running around.
I must say that Jack really enjoyed himself. Now that he is getting so much older, he is also getting so much more sure of himself. Nothing can phase him. He climbs up way to high, teeters on the edge of slides and ledges and loves to get dirty! Sometimes I have to call out snack time just to get him to stop making me so nervous with his fearlessness!
After our snack we were looking around and of course Jack is saying, "Hi-ya", to everyone he gets within 4 feet of! Then I look over... There on the fence was a little lizard. I was so excited to show it to him and he was just thrilled to watch it! He watched it for 5, 10, 15 minutes! He even touched it. Of course he jumped back 3 feet when it jumped away, I laughed so hard, I almost wet my pants. He was so cute. Who knew a tiny little lizard could bring playtime to a screaming halt! I welcomed it!!
