Fun at the Park

We finally made it back to the park that I u-turned and never stopped at a few weeks ago.  When I saw the number of school buses in the parking lot I nearly did a drive-by again.  I’m just not a crowd person.  We forged ahead and I made Ryan run so we could get in before the line of kids (mature huh!). 

 

 

This was as close as Erik would get to the carousel.

 

Notice Erik getting off as soon as Ryan started moving it.

 

 

 

 Erik loved feeding the animals.  He didn’t care if they slimed him or nudged his hand a little. 

 

 

 

I so need one of these at home!

 

 If I had one of these there would be way less trouble getting hands washed…there would be other problems, but their hands would be clean.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It’s been a good week for slides.  The long, straight one was voted ‘best in slides’. 

 

 

 

 

 

The climbing structure was the big hit of the day.  Erik was crazy for it.  Leaving the structure was also a hit (by Erik) followed by a tantrum most of the park got to enjoy. 

 

 

 

Thanks Gramma for the cool snack tray.  It worked perfectly and it’s the longest he’s stayed in the stroller in a long time.

 

When we got home my uncle had taken down the flowering plum for us.  It was leaning and always in the way.  I’m sure we can do better!
