There are only three more weeks left in this school year, and then I will have two glorious months to stay home with Jack and spend all my time with him. We’ve got a few trips with family planned for this summer already, and I want to make sure that we do lots of fun things while I’m off work, so I’m working on a bucket list of things we can do that are cheap (or free!) and local. If you have any suggestions for fun things to do with a one-year-old in Tuscaloosa or Birmingham, let me know!
