Jonah absolutely loves the playground and gets braver every visit.
Elias loved roaming around freely, which he was allowed to do because (unlike Bebe) he does not eat the mulch.
Bebe was not really sure about the slide, but Dada insisted.

This is by far the babies FAVORITE thing to do at the park. It's almost like someone actually designed something for twins!
Okay, now on to our apple picking. The twins went home to stay with Kelly so Jonah could have some special time with just Mama and Dada. He loved it! He did ask a couple of times about what the babies were doing, but for the most part he did not miss them :) He is growing up so quickly and it is amazing to spend some time with just him. He talks like he is about 9 and makes the most wonderful observations. My own personal observation is that if we had only one child my life would be DRASTICALLY different. I already knew this, but had not really felt it before. The ease of the whole afternoon was mind blowing and I actually felt like I was on a relaxing vacation. (Sorry mom, I agree with Jan - one child just doesn't count!) However, that being said, I wouldn't change anything for the world. I will just continue to enjoy my quite one on one times with the children and relish the other crazy, loud and hilarious moments when we are all together, knowing that they will be gone before I know it.
The view is obviously gorgeous and only added to our already perfect day :)

Dada actually climbed the tree to pick these apples. I do not think you are supposed to, but he doesn't always take rules to be that serious :)

The fam (or as Mary said, 50% of it!) It was a special Jonah trip, so the twins stayed with Kelly.
I don't know what to say besides, Perfection!
Headed home, belly's full and very very happy.
I'm sure some poor woman was looking at you thinking, that woman with just one kid doesn't know how easy she has it! You should wear a t-shirt that says "My other kids aren't with me!" on occasions like this!
ReplyDeletehmmm....can't believe you said that!
ReplyDeletehaha Sarah, love the idea :) Mom, I was almost certain after having juggled the kids with me that you would agree, actually I'm almost positive that you have before!
