Ori met some of his friends at the park this week for a super duper play-date. After being reclusive the past couple months, it was quite refreshing to get out. Except crazy me forgot how to prepare for summer play-dates. All of his friends had on sunscreen, wore hats, and drank lots of water. Poor Ori had none of those things. I felt pretty bad, but he survived.

I loved seeing the personalities of these little boys. A year ago we were pushing infants around the zoo in strollers and now they can play fairly independently.

My sweet Ori spent his time going down the toddler slide and rolling around in the sand box. Yes, rolling. He loves sand. (Like the bruise on his cheek? His indoor entertainment of diving off the ottoman turned dangerous.)

Grey is tough. And brave. He climbed up the big kid jungle gym and went down a HUGE slide. More than once. He even let Ori wear his John Deere hat since we left Ori's at home.

And then there's Wilder. Wilder is sweet and sensitive. He LOVED Calla. I have never seen a child this age be so loving toward a baby. Wilder is definitely ready to meet his baby/sister soon!

Ori is blessed to have friends like these and I am blessed to know their mommas.

In that last picture Ori and Grey could almost be brothers. Nice shots.

So glad to see you are getting out. We were house bound with Quin from December 1 through Easter. It was a tough time on my sanity, but I don't regret it one bit.
