We have discovered that Reagan is a playground-aholic. Slides are her favorite new thing, and she wants to climb anything and everything. Even today her daily school status came back with the comment "the best part of Reagan's day today was exploring the playground. She climbed up the stairs and went down the slide." They have no idea the they are contributing to creating a playground monster. In a good way of course.
On Sunday we took the dogs to the park. Those poor retrievers never get enough exercise these days. When we got to the park, it was empty. According to the rules kids under the age of 5 are not allowed inside, but Roo and I went in anyway since there was no one there. Reilly was going nuts playing fetch and he would run up to us at full speed, Reagan laughed out loud watching him barrel towards us with such energy. After a while, Roo decided that she wanted to eat dirt, so that quickly changed my agenda. Kerry stayed in the dog park and we went for a ride on her beloved tricycle. It was funny, as I pushed her around the perimeter Nugget followed us along the fence line. It was like he wanted to keep his eye on his little friend.
On the way home Kerry drove us past a new park and playground close to our house. Since he hadn't seen Roo on the slide the day before we took her out. We ended up playing there for almost an hour and then Reagan threw a true toddler fit because she didn't want to leave. Back arched, head thrown and legs kicking. She did not want to go. I guess I can't complain, at least she really likes to be outside. I see lots and lots of playground visits in our future...
