February Grandkids on Review: Part THREE

Proceeding on to my chronicling of
February quality time with all the 
grandchildren, it's Claire and Evan's
turn again. This was on a special Friday.
Evan shows Grandma Claire's "Bingo" puppy dog
  puppet.  We have resolved  to create more paper
sack puppets one day soon.

Claire loves the way her rocking horse moves
about on their hardwood floors.  That thing had
better be glad she doesn't have spurs!

During our day together, we took the kids to Camelot
Park not once, not twice, but three times.  We had
our reasons.  Here, Evan and Grandma survey their
kingdom from on high.

No backseat drivers here.  They're both steering
for all they're worth.  Out of our way!!

Grandma offers prove that sliding is for all ages.
Well, actually, grandpa is the only one who didn't slide.

Claire's always up for action.

While Evan is a little more reluctant.

"I'm with you, Grandpa.  We need to act our age!"

At two-and-a-half, Claire can navigate
every playspace Camelot has to offer.

The kids call this "the trampoline."  It is bouncy,
and Evan wisely waited until Claire had moved on
before he climbed aboard.  But actually, she did
rejoin him later and they both balanced very well.

If you haven't visited Camelot Park, you're missing
one of the great free resources for families in the
Pinehurst area.

This shot doesn't just feature Claire swinging: it's a
closeup of her glow-in-the-dark airplane shirt.  That
gets worn almost every day it's not in the laundry.
She should wear it out about the time she's ready for
the next size up.

These final two photos demonstrate that the Ev-man
is always smiling.  Whether sailing through the air . . .

or driving SOLO for the first time.
Put the pedal to the metal, Evan!

More February pictures still to come.  If you're too
busy to view them, I'll look at them a little extra for you.
