It's been slow lately...

Only one explanation for that:

What do you guys do with baby in the summer?  I swear, I'm outside for like 10 minutes and then I'm like "hey, DD, you want to go inside forever?"  I know there are places to go and things to see and what not, but, ugh, I'm not a summer person. But I don't want DD missing out on things because I hate summer.

As I'm sure you've seen, I took DD to the beach Saturday.  We went to Oval Beach on Lake Michigan.  Even though she was tired from all the window shopping/puking up her lunch/pointing and screeching at every single dog we passed walking around Saugatuck she still had fun.  Sunday I stopped at the park on the way home from a store run and she got all excited about the ducks and a turtle she saw.  I try to do at least one really fun thing with her every weekend.  

Last night I got the stroller out of my Jeep to hose all the sand off and she had a meltdown.  She thought we were going somewhere.  She WANTED to go somewhere!  I kept telling her to step away from the stroller or she'd get wet but she just wanted to shriek and cry so she got splashed a little.  That just pissed her off even more.  She never acts like that so I must have worn her out over the weekend.

It's been hot as hell here lately, and humid too, so I try to stay indoors or in the pool as much as possible.

When DD was little, the mall playground was a favorite of mine during the summer months

I forgot about mall play areas! Great idea @jellybean529

I can't wait to take her to arcades...

Baby pool, big pool, sand box in the yard, walk around in their wagon, the beach and boardwalk, park, splash park, arcade, sesame place, someone else's house/yard - they just need change of scenery

I don't usally go outside with her, it's hard with her being so young. She's learning how to walk right now though, and I think it will be easier once she can really walk and is older...

Same here, DD is just starting to walk (she can take as many as 14 steps in a row!) so I want to figure out places that are less likely to be overthrown by a million kids.
