Park Playdate

We went on a park play date with our friends today. Abby and Autumn (AJ) had a great time riding in Abby's wagon on the way to the park. I almost had a heart attack trying to pull two girls while wearing Olivia. They got a little heavy in the hot sun (it got to 79 degrees on my thermometer today - and the thermometer is in the shade).
Abby and Autumn ran all over around the locks. It's a good thing the whole place is fenced in and has only two exits. There were quite a few times when we weren't really sure where the girls had run off to, but since we could see the only exit available to them, there is nothing too dangerous, and no one else was around we figured we'd let them enjoy some independence for a little bit.
Olivia hung out in the shade of the wagon canopy, which thankfully is totally easy to pop on and off. She also checked out the newest foster child to live with our friends. He's a little boy who is almost two weeks old. It was almost like her first little play date too, since we let them play together after Patrick finished his bottle.

Abby has also been enjoying her little pool in the backyard and has been riding down the slide in her wet bathing suit. It has been beautiful outside. It has been close to 80 the last two days, which makes for some really wonderful outside time. Unfortunately it also makes Abby loathe nap time. She didn't even nap on Sunday or Monday. That is not something I am going to allow to occur on a regular basis.

Awe, that is such a cute story, how do you carry one and pull two?? You are such a little body yourself???? Those little girls are so cute, and you are one wonderful Mommy!! God Bless you and Steve. That back yard sounds like it is sizing up to be a really fun place to be. Olivia is getting so big. Love and Hugs GG
