We spent this weekend enjoying the warming sun. The original plan on Saturday was to visit this Maple Sugaring Thanksgiving celebration, but it turns out it was cancelled... which we only discovered as we were sitting in the empty area waiting for our friends to arrive. We made the best of it and ended up having a nice time with our friends despite the change of plans. We drove to the first playground we could find and all three of the kids ran free for a while. J checked out all the equipment first - and I think a direct quote about the sliding bar was that it was the most fun he'd had in six weeks. The playground was right next to a library that had a preschool room (with a door to block out Aiden's loud talking -boooksss!). There was a little wooden boat to sit in and read... which Aiden quickly learned how to jump in and out of in order to load up with more booooks. We had a nice lunch in Wickford Village after feeding the ducks their lunch in the little inlet. Then we took full advantage of the Creatoyvity train table fun. Aiden was a pretty tired guy after all that excitement.
He woke up this morning and was ready for more fun. I took him cruising to our little park down the street while daddy got some work done. Then all three of us went to this park that we'd been to with friends before Aiden was born. It's full of old Little Tikes and it really resembles a ride on/climb on toy graveyard. They have really nice slides and swings too. Aiden just couldn't get enough weeee-ing in to one visit, so we headed down the street to a park near my work that I hope I can meet up with Aiden at over lunch hours this summer. I think his highlight there was the sandbox where this nice little girl shared her shovel with him. It made for a nice complete tucker-em-out sorta day... so thanks to Aiden falling asleep early, here are the fun weeeees he probably dreamt about...

Loved "weeeee!" and couldn't help but think it would make a great commercial for Little Tykes, whose world headquarters is right here in Hudson, Ohio. I pass it every day on my way to the fitness club. Enjoyed seeing the variety of things (even play things!) that Aiden is learning to do.
GREAT video! Loved hearing Aiden talk and be so excited about all the fun stuff on the playground. Great playgrounds for playtime in Chicago :)
