We have turned our backyard into a bonus play area. Thanks to Craig's list we have added two beautiful large pieces of plastic stuff to our collection, a sandbox and sensory table. Bridger loves them both! We have been fully taking advantage of the beautiful weather and Bridger has been sleeping soundly (no need to worry about the sweet puppy in one of the photos, we did not acquire another furry family member, Canolli belongs to our neighbors behind us).
