We celebrate Christmas in July with my Mom's side of the family since my Grandma goes South for the winter...(ahhh winter...as I type this in 90 degree heat!). We met at a nice park near my Grandma's house that my siblings and cousins used to play at when we were little. Lauren was absolutely in love with all the playground equipment. She is definitely a daredevil when it comes to climbing and experimenting with slides.
The youngest one...Baby Tucker
Lauren kept playing on this bridge/slide combo at the park. For some reason she was drawn to it and it held her attention for a LONG time. Cousin Ethan watched from a distance for awhile and then decided to join her. It is funny to watch how parent expectations/child's personality determine their 'playground behavior'. Ethan was unsure of the odd contraption in the beginning so I told him to watch Lauren walk across the bridge and down the slide. He held on so tight and was very cautious walking across the bridge which seemed to be okay for him. It was the slide that he just couldn't grasp. The metal slide was really wide so a person could only physically hold onto one edge inside of using both hands on each side. Again, he watched Lauren and then slowly made his way down. The best part though was when he said, "I'm not big enough yet for this slide!" Oh Cousin Ethan, you need to give some of your cautious and safe mentality to Lauren!
Slide time! So glad they don't make hot metal slides anymore.
Going across for the 50th time!
First time eating Jello!
Lauren got into some yarn at my parent's house! Wowzers!
