Grass.......

As we all look forward to the summer time - the babies are new to the concept of "grass".   It is something that keeps the close at hand in the yard - however when they are in their walkers, they tend to think it is something to eat!  

We are trying to get to the park on a daily basis - and during our visit to the park, we swing and sit on the ground to have a snack.   This concept is working out quite nicely - since the babies freak out when touching the grass.  I can manage quite well with this setup.

 If you notice - they hate grass so much - that they are having trouble deciding who should get the bottle and how important is it really to get the bottle?   "We can let that one go - because there are two more here on the blanket - Yeah - or maybe we can get Mary to go get the bottle??"   "but, dude, we really need the bottle?" "sis, seriously?  I am so not getting the bottle - you want it -  you get it"   "augh"  (notice that Mary is just happy and content and out of trouble sitting by herself in the corner - snacking)....    (Anyway - end result - mom got the bottle)

In preparation for the possibility that some day they will like grass and the park will become a nightmare, my husband and I found the perfect solution:

Erect a park in the back yard!   Here is our work in progress....    We will be adding the slide and rope swing and baby swings in the days to come - but it was a perfect solution for keeping the babies safe and near.  So, I am thinking I can put them in the stroller and "pretend" walk to the park and end up back at home to swing and have a snack?  Sounds good to me!!!!

BTW - after such hard work in the yard - it is time for watermelon....

Yep - that is how we roll.    Zoltan, OUT!
