Now that I am staying at home and Isabelle is quite young - we decided to invest in a play set for the girls - particularly Amelia. She loves to be outside and we want to encourage that interest, while staying close to home for Isabelle. Papa agreed to help Daddy tear down and set up a used play set. It turned out to be a lot more work than expected, but it looks great and Amelia loves it!
Papa reading to Amelia. We all agreed that we would not loose Papa this day!
The first drop off of the play set. Nana and Amelia are inspecting the pieces - speculating how it would look in the end.

Amelia felt like such a big girl on these chairs, but we had some close calls on too much weight on the back, so Nana is sitting behind Amelia so she doesn't fall over.
So excited to be outside and for her play set
Aunt Amber getting sun - she is quite comfortable....as well as Isabelle!
The re-building process begins
"How did this go together again?"
Amelia was very excited and Aunt Amber helped her climb. Indie also enjoyed all of the activity outside

Amelia will walk/stand this way often - with her hands behind her back. I'm not sure where she picked it up from.
Amelia chillin' and eating a snack.
Nana and Isabelle. It was a such a beautiful day out.
The play set is finished!
Amelia was THRILLED!!! She wanted to swing and swing and swing. And boy was she mad when she had to get off.
I love how Amelia is looking at her Papa in this picture

Everyone admiring the work Daddy and Papa did
Partner swinging!
Nana is getting in on pushing the swing action. As you can see on Amelia's face - she is still enjoying it!

During this weekend, Amelia did not want to go down the slide....she would climb up in the tower and then climb the stairs back down. We didn't want to pressure her to go down the slide and figured she would go down when she was ready. Well, last night she was ready and went down the slide all by herself!
Thank you so much Papa for your hard work on setting up the play set. We couldn't have done it without you! It was also great to see Nana and Aunt Amber! Thank you also for all your help with the girls and food preparation!

You are welcome. I enjoyed helping Patrick with the swingset and seeing how excited Amelia was when it was done. Papa
