Picnic at the Park

The weather is finally warming up! We decided to have a picnic at the park.
Brady LOVES being outside, and LOVES watching kids play.
It won't be long before he is up and running with his brother!
Jayden had so much fun!
Ben was so sweet. He brought two play snakes, and gave one to Jayden. Those two carried their pretend snakes around the entire time they were playing at the park. Thanks Ben!
Jessica and I were able to sit, relax, and visit.
We were the only ones at the park, so we didn't have to worry about anything.
Buddies!
Giving Ben a hug...
Jessica and Brady
For those of you who don't know...Jessica is the one who watched Jayden for me, when I taught at Sundance. She started watching him when he was 5 months old. Not sure what I would have done without her!
Jayden loved her, and I gained a friend for life!
It was a little chilly, when we first got there. So, I bundled Brady up!
These two ran and ran...Jayden's cheeks were so red by the time we left.
Jessica pushed the big boys on the swings...
While Brady got to try the swings for his first time!!
To say he loved it might be an understatement!
Such a happy boy!
The boys wanted off the swings to go run around some more.
They pretended they were fireman, climbing up the ladder.
Jayden came home and CRASHED! He was so tired.
But, before his nap he told me, "I need to go play with Ben again. Maybe I need to go to Ben's House." I told him maybe later because all little boys have to take naps. His reply was,
"Well, I think Ben wanted me to take a nap at his house, with him."
Good try buddy! Maybe next time...

Which park is that? The one we went to with Lindsey? On Palm? Looks like J & Ben had fun! Ben looks like he got a lot taller?:)
