A New Park Every Week!!

So the kids and I ventured out this AM ( before the Colorado heat hits later today) to a new park that we hadn't gone to. It was absolutely beautiful this morning,  75 degrees, dry and blue skies breeze but very nice. The park is in the same area as one that we frequent, I'm not sure why I hadn't detected it but boy it was SO PERFECT for little hands and feet.  Both Maddox and Kennon loved it.  It has that nice rubber flooring that doesn't get your feet black and is easy to crawl/walk on. Kennon even got in on some slide action and was able to climb up the steps to the slide since they were little guy size.  They had this totally cool climbing wall that Maddox did repeatedly.  I watched Kennon eye her up and down as she did that.  I'm quite certain he will be attempting to do it next time we visit. Anyhow while I was there I thought I should try to take the kids to a new park each week.( weather and schedule permitting) There are tons of parks around the Quad Cities....some really fabulous ones with water fountain sprayers and others with rocket ships! So this week is Week 1. We'll see where next week takes us.  All of these pictures are from my iPhone ( I forgot the actual camera). I got some fabulous footage of Kennon walking but it doesn't seem to be recognizing it on the MAC. Grrrrr....technical difficulties. I"ll keep trying. UPDATE I got it to work!! ( human error.....ooops) The other pictures are just random ones from my phone.  Enjoy!! 

Do you think he is doing any of my paperwork by chance??

'I like this button right here'

Maddox shopping at Hyvee just like Mom....only Mom never gets the free cookie :) 

Kennon literally fell asleep in his chair after dinner this night, he has never done that before and it wasn't even a school night.  A testament to the fact that he does NOT sleep well at night. 

One of my favorite poses from Kennon's 1 year pictures we had taken last weekend.  Tie and suit shirt just like Dad. 

'These steps are a piece of cake for me' 

Oh,  what a nice hug Maddox.

Wait Maddox...it is supposed to be a HUG not a HEADLOCK :) 

Static electricity from the slide.  Someone needs to invent a non static material. All the playground slides do this. 

 It's fun to walk on this nice rubber stuff.
