Parks and outside fun

I love being able to be outside with the boys.  We try to make it to parks as often as we can, and if not, we have the swingset in the backyard.  Sadly, Z is growing out of just going to the playground.  If he has a friend his age to play with there, he is still fine, but if not, he gets bored pretty easily.  So sad about that.  Often we go to a park nearby where there is a bike path.  We have started letting the littles ride halfway around to the playground then stopping to play, while Z and Nate will ride a time or two around the loop and then Z can play with us for a short while longer.  Times, they're changing. 

Still, we have a few pictures from the times we've been out. 

Can I state for the record that I can't wait til the littles can pump?

 This was one of the times Z was off riding with Nate.

 This was a time that Z was at school so it was just me and the littles.  It was a perfect day and they had so much fun.  It is so exciting to see them really being able to tackle all parts of the playground without me being totally freaked out that they will fall and kill themselves.  They even have learned how to slide down a pole in the past month (that still freaks me out a bit, though!). 

 This park has a long walking path, too, and the boys love to run down and along it. 

 I just loved this series of pictures.  They're so cute :)
