I have an excuse for every season. Winter? Too cold. Spring? Too rainy. Summer? Too hot. Fall? Umm... well, okay - let's go...
I swear, it is fun to take the kids to the playground. They always have a great time. The older kids are often making random friends (usually someone they've seen around school before) and everyone gets some exercise and burns off some extra energy. That's all good, right?
The issue is that it's REALLY hard to keep track of a 2 year old and a 1 year old at the same time. Especially when said 2 year old wants to do things the older kids are doing and the 1 year old only wants to lick the ground... So, more often than not, it's the backyard "playground" for us!
But yesterday was a beautiful day worthy of a trip to the playground. And since my extra adult (hubby) was on hand, it was a breeze... So I'm pretty sure that this counts as Levi's first "real" trip to the playground. In the past, he was sleeping, or didn't actually use any of the equipment or just hung out in the stroller or carrier. He had a great time, as did everyone else. I may actually look forward to going back.. next Spring!
