A day at the park

Well the weather has been just perfect here the last few weeks. So we decided to take advantage of it and go to the park. It was a blast. We met a good friend and her twin boys there. The kids all had so much fun. We started out feeding the fowl. There were ducks, peacocks, chickens, roosters, geese and lots of pigeons. The geese were a little scary, as the kids do not know to pull their hands away, so a few fingers got lightly nibbled. But for the most part the birds are pretty friendly. I even managed to get the peacocks to eat out of my hand.
After all the bread was gone, we make the trek over to the playground. That is always lots of fun with toddlers. Tim went down the slide all by himself. He had only done this once before, but that day he went down many, many times. It was great to see. He is becoming so independent. (It helps that the other 2 boys were going down by themselves too!)
Lex was not content to set in the stroller for to long. She wanted to play with the birds. Then at the play ground we took her out and let her "walk" and she even got to go down the slide. It was a blast!

Anyway, just wanted to update everyone...
We're actually celebrating Christmas a little early in the Porter side of the family, as there is family here from NY, and Mike's brother Jesse is getting shipped out at the beginning of Dec. So we all decided to combine Thanksgiving and Christmas. So in the next few days there should be lots of pictures, and stories to be posted.
Everyone have a VERY Happy Thanksgiving, and check back soon after... LOL
