3.15.2012 Unexpected Park Play

On Thursday I was buckling the kids in the car to go visit Krista, when I realized that Eli had hives all over his legs. I have no idea what they are from, but I figured 6-week old Jacob probably should be exposed to whatever Eli had going on. BUT, we were already in the car, and I hate to waste a good 'strap-in', so we headed to a park. I thought it would be fun to visit a new park, so we tried one about a mile from our house. Leah had fun climbing all over the place.
She had loads of fun.

Eli went down the slide about a million times. Then he braved this ladder. It is always so amazing to me when he tries something new...especially something 'risky'. I always hold my breath and hope that he doesn't plummet to the ground...I try really hard to 'let him be brave' :)

I realize that this is probably not all that dangerous, but since he has just recently started taking 'risks' at the park, this is new ground for me.

I do realize this is only the beginning when it comes to him doing things that make me hold my breath...he's sure to do much scarier things...

...but for now, this is dangerous enough for me.

Here's hoping his Uncle doesn't show him the beams in the barn... or the Break Wall.
