playing at the park...

There are amazing parks spread out all through our neighborhood. And, they aren't just your regular old parks, but really neat, original play areas. One park has a "pirate ship" constructed entirely of ropes for the kids to climb on and hang from the riggings. This particular park has these awesome geometrical things that the kids have to shift their body weight to get it to move. And, once the girls got the hang of it, they could rotate fast! We regularly take walks down to one of the many parks throughout our neighborhood.





Jase's only word that he consistently says is "Ball." He loves balls! Oh, I guess he does say one other word regularly: "Huh-Uh," which contrary to what it sounds like actually means "yes" in Jase's language.



The Bub is a little daredevil. He loves slides and will go down the tallest slide at the playground without even the slightest hesitation. Sometimes he even gets so much momentum going that he launches himself right off the end of the slide. But, that does not deter him. He just stands up, looks a little confused or maybe a bit put off, and turns to go climb the stairs back up to the top.





I love this crazy little kid!
