We spent most of the day today at the park. We hung out with Zen for a while just throwing the frisbee. then we walked over to the play area and both of the girls went straight for the Fire Engine slide. The crawled up the stairs and "turn around to go down" and then all by themselves, they slid down, smiling the whole way. Rayla went back a couple times but Payton went on to bigger things. And I do mean bigger. This girl climbed up the big stairs, walked across an open criss-cross patterned walkway and sat at the top of the big spiral slide. I, of course, freaked out because I couldn't get to her in time to have her go down on my lap, and I was so scared she was going to fall off the side of the slide. i ran underneath the slide just in time to "catch" her at the bottom. The problem with this is that she didn't need catching. Her face was beaming from being so proud and she scooted off the slide and climbed right back up all to do it again, but this time she went down the very steep straight slide. Oh my poor heart. She is going to be a daredevil.
Rayla likes the slide but she LOVES the swing. She says "mooowre" when she needs to be pushed higher and she pumps her little legs in excitement.
Then we headed home for lunch and naptime (too bad they didn't want to nap when Mamo and Mom wanted to).
Dinner was full of excitement too. We had tacos and they both enjoyed the tortillas and beans, so much so that they plastered it in their hair and all over every part of their body. They thought this was hilarious.
The night ended with Payton and Rayla running laps on the couch and then sitting on the window sill while saying "Bye Bye".
Another great weekend!
