More Pictures

It doesn't matter what the weather is like, if we have company, Joey expects to go to the park. So on Wednesday, the last possible opportunity, Nanny and I took the boys to the park. The weather was okay...at least it wasn't raining. It did sprinkle a little, and if the wind blew it got a bit chilly. The play equipment was all wet, and each time the boys went down the slide, they got a little more wet. But they had fun.
As soon as we got to the park, I was busy changing Ethan's dirty diaper and getting ready to feed him. I looked over to check on the boys and found that Nick had climbed up on the teeter totter ALL by himself. This was a first for him; usually, there is an adult on each side, one with each child. This time, the boys showed what big boys they have become by getting up all by themselves.
You can see how Ethan is enjoying his time at the park! The poor kid was bared to the cold wind as I changed his diaper, and then was practically thrown around like a rag doll trying to get him wrapped up again!
What a cute boy! I can't believe it; a year from now, I will be sending him away to Kindergarten. I am definitely NOT ready. The closer school gets, the more I think about homeschooling.
What an adorable little boy. He has such a gentle, loving spirit. He has needed more loving and snuggling time the last few months, and it is just getting more prevalent.
You can see the pride in his very stance. He had climbed up the rope/net ladder all by himself! He had just learned to do this in June when Grandma Mary was here. Joey was in the middle of telling Nanny and I about how big he was when he stopped in mid-sentence and said, "Spooky!" Nanny and I were laughing so hard at this out-of-the-blue tangent. Finally, Joey explained that he heard his echo, and it was spooky.
