Swings...again...

Notice a theme yet in the Riley household???

Yes, Sherlock, the answer is SWINGS!!
(For those of you who thought 'soccer ball'..... you can be Watson =) )

I have to admit it is rare that the three of us make it to the park together as a family. With all the travel, refereeing, running, and other family and friend activities, we are generally running in a thousand directions. This day, however, we pulled it off.....and boy was it great.

The little man took straight to the swings...

I think this face says it all...

Surprise, surprise, the soccer ball makes an appearance.  Ayden insisted that his 'baa' get to ride with him. I'm thinking if this soccer ball obsession goes on much longer we will have to give it  a name. I hate to admit this, but sometimes he even insists the ball be next to him when he eats....

(Does the word "Wilson" come to mind??)

 

This park adventure also happened to be Jeremy's first swing experience with Ayden. J was concerned Ayden may be getting seasick after a while....but, when the complaining began as the swing slowed, Jeremy quickly reassessed and gave Ayden a good push!
