Hello... My name in Brad Cavanugh. Welcome to the online home of the Cavanaugh family. Currently, that is myself, my beautiful wife Sorcha our son Thomas (born May 13th, 2005) and our other son William (born March 10th 2008). Here is where we will try to keep you up to date with what's going on in our world. Hope you enjoy.
Sorcha, Thomas, William and I went to Brentwood park yesterday for some outside time. Thomas loves Brentwood. It's just a real nice park. Lots of shade, lots of room to run around and especially a sandbox. Thomas loves to play in the sandbox. Although, this trip he didn't want to because it was too hot. Oh well... He did have a great time. At one point he chased a couple girls around the playscape as a dinosaur. They all loved it.
Thomas has been on a huge dinosaur kick lately. Any of the videos he's watching are either the cartoon Land Before Time or the the BBC series about dinosaurs (which are really cool I might add). So... He was very excited to hear that the dinosaurs have come to Austin. Zilker Park is hosting a dinosaur exhibit until the end of November. Needless to say, Thomas had a great time. See the pictures here.
We met Frank and Jen at the South Park meadows playscape the other day. I had never been there. It's pretty cool. Lot's to do. Thomas kept trying to figure out why there were two girls that looked the same. We got some decent pictures. I was also able to get a little video..
One thing Thomas loves is playing outside. Our goal for a while has been to find the best parks all over Austin and the surrounding areas. Well, we found a great one today. There is a new park in Round Rock over by Brushy Creek that has a great little toddler playscape. It's quite shaded and and has a lot of empty fields around it for lots of running around. Here are some pictures of our time at the park.
