Park

Today I took the kids to the park. Here are Matt and Ady riding the scooters they got from Grandma and Poppie.Bennett riding comfortably in the stroller. He was happy to have the strap to chew on.

Friends swining together. They tried to hold hands...not going to work..kiddos.
Bennett's first ride in a swing. He enjoyed it.
Pushing my brother. It was fun to watch Matthew trying to push him.
First ride on the slide...thanks sister!!!!When we got home, Matthew asked for watermelon. I cut this small piece,
turned around and here he was.
And more of Bennett. He is almost 6 months old and just a fun little guy. He loves to eat and has gotten to eat many foods. He even had a smartie today as I heard Matt say, "Mommy, Bennett likes smarties too!!!" As much as I try I can't win. Ady and Matt are very busy and without holding Bennett 24/7 I can't do much more than try to keep him alive. Matt is overly loving and and nearly smothered him on occasions. He tries to pick him up and carry him around and he is giving me a HUGE headache and an ulcer of worry. Sigh, I love Bennett being a baby and wouldn't want to wish it away, but seriously can't wait for him to get big enough to hold his own.

Your little Bennett is so handsome! ( obviously all of your kids are cute, especially that Matthew, seeming as he looks like my bear)

Aaah, the strap - perfect baby entertainer! Mya loves anything like that, too, so funny!
Such cute little poopers - we need to do a "cousins day at the park" again!

I know what you mean about wanting them to be old enough to hold their own. It will be nice when you don't have to worry about older sibiling hurting them all the time. Cute park pictures.

Scooters for Matt's birthday...Are we doing bike's for Ady's birthday? haha

They are growing up so fast... I miss the days when they liked to cuddle up in the rocker and just sit for awhile... Bennett is quickly getting out of that one too. He wants to get down and play with the kids (until Matt shows up with his head bangers and hugs crunchers).

Love you, Gramma
