afternoon at the playground...

...before our evening at the basketball practices!

it was 70 degrees! we couldn't help ourselves!

bailey is CRAZY on the monkey bars! she.will.not.stop. even with bloody calluses on her hands!
and he is superman-like strong.

they are all in there somewhere...joshua in HEAVEN playing soccer with a bunch of boys. rebekah and lincoln racing around the track. levi in the stroller. sawyer close by, bouncing a ball. and bailey on the monkey bars.
this is what he looked like all day. SO sad. tears just streamed from his eyes. he wasn't crying, tears were just coming out. i held him most of the day. but he was in the stroller for a few minutes so i could play with each kid - watched bailey on the monkey bars and jumped up and down when she made it across...again and again, raced lincoln around the track AND bought some food from the restaurant he set up, challenged rebekah to around the world (basketball) and WON!, smiled at sawyer :-)
lincoln's restaurant
sawyer is SO sweet with levi.
last sad one. i promise.
ok. lincoln's new thing is to walk "like a dog". he'll do this for a LONG time and he's super fast at it!
sawyer and bailey tried it. they didn't last very long.

Was Levi sneezing too? Maybe allergies if you don't think he was crying?? And seriously, Lincoln walking like a dog is hilarious. It's wonderful to see him playing and pretending!! (my kids do the restaurant thing too.

Joshua playing with the other boys - he's growing up and growing his comfort zone. Love that.

Bailey in shorts, boots, and a sweatshirt. Totally Ainsley. Makes me laugh.
