First, if you will be so kind, please notice the freshly mown lawn. I’ve given both yards their first mowing of the year and now can take the mower in for it’s yearly tune-up before it’s real work begins.
Today was just a beautiful day simply apologizing for the entire winter we had. I mowed the lawn with Wesley and Piper while Kyla stayed near the house feeding the 800 ponies we acquired last month. (Luckily for us, the ponies and their poop are both invisible. Possibly imaginary, but further studies will need to be conducted.) Kyla came down when her barn chores were done and said, and I quote, “Wow, Mama, this lawn is nicely mowed!” Ah, my efforts had been appreciated. I melted.
The kids can swing for hours. I want to get either a tire swing or a glider soon, so at least two of them can be on the same swing. See, it is all about efficiency.
Piper loves all three swings—baby, big kid, and disc. She’s versatile and clearly adaptable.
Wesley will take off in that rocket someday.
This girls could be pushed on the disc swing for approximately all day. She loves high and twirly. We don’t raise no cowards here at the ranch. Not much in way of manners, either, but no fear.
The kids all love the log cabin playhouse, too. It often serves as a home or a restaurant (with a drive-thru window) for the girls, but Wesley is just discovering how fun it is to open and shut the door and play peek-a-boo in the windows.
I was helping Wesley climb this ladder early in the afternoon, but I caught him going up completely solo before we went in. Go, Wes!
And why does a baby climb a ladder? To get to the slide, of course! See you at the bottom, boy!
Kyla figured out how to cross the monkey bars on her own today. (It involves stepping along the side of the slide when she needs to.)
