another day at the park

loving this wonderful spring weather! and i really appreciated it on a weekend when lance was at drill. it was so nice to be able to get out of the house. today was PERFECT!! we went a little early - around 10:30 - so a lot of people must have been in church. whatever the reason, we had the entire playground to ourselves! i loved it! i didn't have to hover over miles as much and i felt more comfortable letting ethan roam a bit. normally i stick pretty close to him because he tends to try out things that he isn't quite ready for if he sees some of the bigger kids do it. i did feel a bit old though after doing some time on the slides and climbing through tunnels...i do not think i am up to that! today was also the first day ethan went on the big kid swings! he has been dying to try them out but in the past he didn't hold on well enough and would just slump down, today he sat on there perfectly and even let me push him a bit.
