a walk around the neighborhood

Kaden has been getting quite restless lately.  It must be because he's a boy and just has too much energy in him.  Plus, he's been fighting his naps lately.  So, in order to get him out of the house and burn some energy (read: tire him out!), we've started taking him for short walks around the neighborhood.  

 He actually enjoys getting out and exploring, so it's been quite nice for both of us!

 He also finds fascinating things like sticks and manhole covers...

 And nasty piles of leaves that the maintenance guys gather, but forget to pick up.

Once he starts poking and prodding said nasty leaf pile is usually about the time I end our neighborhood walks.  You just never know WHAT he'll find inside that pile of leaves, sticks and countless creepy-crawly things.
