wishing for spring....

The weather has been a bit warmer the past few days so I packed up the boys and headed to a little park that is right around the corner. It was a little chillier than I thought it would be but the boys were just happy to be outside.
Charlie has made so much progress on the bigger playground equipment. At first he acted bummed and said he didn't want to play on it, but after a few minutes he was running, jumping and climbing like a pro.
His pants aren't really as short as they look in this picture. :)
I can't believe how grown-up he looks. So handsome!


Shortly after we arrived a little boy showed up to play. He was five and his name was McKay. Am I just crazy or is that a little young to let your little boy walk over to the park to play by himself? He was very sweet. He liked to jump to the ground from the very top of the play structure. Charlie just watched him in disbelief and then he said to me "Don't worry mom, I am not going to do THAT. That is VERY dangerous!" After they played for a while McKay said he was going to get a drink and would be right back. A few minutes later he came back with 2 bottles of water, one for him and one for Charlie. (don't worry, I opened it and it was brand new) Here they are sitting down having a "water picnic".
Then they went on a ghost hunt. This was their ghost-hunting ship. They didn't spot any ghosts so they switched to hunting for treasure. They found lots of crystal filled rocks and are now very rich little boys.
Um, hello. Please tell me that you think this boy is as cute as I do!
I think he could have watched his brother play all day.
He was pretty excited to get up on the equipment even though mama was very stressed out and kept a hand on him at all times!
He stood up holding on to this bar for most of the time. He did not dig the wood chips. He tried to crawl on them but just couldn't do it. Then he just sat with his hands up in the air trying to scoot around on his butt. It was hilarious.


Keeping an eye on Charlie.



His little hands were starting to get pretty cold so it was time to go. I definitely think we will be back to this park again and again in the months to come.
