I love that Konnor is at the age that he can do more. No longer are we bound to the park (which is still fun) or playing around the house. We can broaden our horizons and do more fun and extravagant things. 
Watching him at Chuck E Cheese on Sunday night made me realize something. My baby is growing up! As awesome as this is, it is sad all the same. I remember the little tiny baby that needed mommy for everything. The mini toddler that started to be independent but still held mommy’s hand.
Now he is a big toddler. In preschool. Getting to the age where he can take on sports. Interacting with kids he doesn’t know, and, as I saw at CEC, learning that money buys fun. Haha! He kept coming over for “monies” so he could play the ski ball game. At one point, I decided that it was probably a good idea to check on him, to which I found him ON the ski ball game. Oye!
His little buddy, Caleb, and his mom went with us as well. We figured the kids would play with each other, but that couldn’t have been further from the truth. Caleb is a year younger than Konnor, so he doesn’t get the games quite yet. He more so wanted to play on the structure than play the games. He did try, however.
They were cute. It was fun. Konnor definitely was worn out by the time we went home. It all just makes me realize that he is growing up and getting bigger. While I don’t enjoy the thought of him getting older, because I love my little bug the way he is, time, and life, go on. I have no choice but to go with the flow, so flow I go!
