Sunday, August 21

Wow, what a great day! When we walked out of church we discovered an amazing thing - an August day in Chicago that was absolutely perfect. The temperature was in the low 80's, with very little humidity - a day that simply screamed for hot dogs, corn on the cob and watermelon (our dinner menu, ahem). Clearly, this was a day for the park and the playground.They had these monkey bars when I was a kid, but I never could do this....and Miles is only 5. He goes back and forth like - like - like a MONKEY!
We discovered that Naomi can sit on these little spring things with her cast - so she tried out several....but Mom got a little nervous on one of them.
After a little Papa instruction, Miles practiced riding without those training wheels....

This is a happy kid!
