Morning Playground Time

This morning we walked in to town to get something Grandma Cindy had saved for her at "Me and Olie's", gooey granola buns, and then we walked to the mill pond playground.  First the girls played in the smaller kids "ring" area, then moved on to the middle "ring" where they climbed the rope climber and went down the slide again and again.  Every time Abby was ready to go down the slide she would yell for me to bend down so that she could see my face, then would slide down, feet first, on her belly.  Zoë just whipped right down the slide, sitting up on her bottom, whether I was waiting right for her or not.  The girls also rode on the teeter-totter together and both tried the balance beam, which tilts when you walk on it.  The last thing we did were the swings, which are in the last "ring".  I reminded them of how to pump their legs and move their bodies to swing themselves, and then Grandma Cindy helped them to do the movements and both of them were getting it and beginning to swing on their own.  A little more practice and I think they'll really have it!

Abby @ 3 years, 8 months, 13 days
Zoë @ 3 years, 8 months, 13 days
