Mickey D's Playland

On the last Tuesday in July, Bethany and I made plans to take our kids to the Scriba pool. It was a rainy day so we decided to go to the McDonald's playland. As I had written, the week before I had gone with Erin and her kids and they had a little fun, but she had to leave and I ended up leaving not long after because Adam got stuck on top! Adam immediately sat down with Devin, entranced by the video games on the table. Devin always has so much patience with Adam, it's amazing. After nuggets and fries, the kids knew the playground was back there and couldn't wait. Adam went up to the top with Devin and got the courage he needed to go down the slide. You can see here, he LOVED it! Bethany was there waiting for him, but he was so excited he wanted to go right back up. Here he is halfway up with Dev and Bri. Down again...he just couldn't get enough!! Meanwhile, Abbey was having a blast in the toddler area. And Brianna was keeping her company. Some kid kept blocking Abbey on the slide and then I realized he kind of liked her. Adam got his sister though by stealing her toy in the slide climb, so I guess it was even! Devin! Abbey dancing around, so excited. As tall as the slide! Bethany got up there with them because Abbey started to get it in her head she wanted to go down the slide! Abbey loved it and I love Bri's smile here :) Adam went down the slide so many times, I couldn't possibly keep track and Devin went down with him, too sometimes. They loved it here so much I am glad they have a place to go this winter! Even though they are 9 and 13, Brianna and Devin have so much patience and fun with my toddlers. They get it from their mom, who I've called the baby whisperer :). We always have fun together but could they please stop growing up?? Seems like yesterday I held them as newborns!!! And yes, Devin is taller than me!!
