Backyard fun

We've been sticking around the house playing lately, so lots of wagon rides around the neighborhood and lots of playing in the backyard. Here are a few pics.


Quincy on the tricyle:

Quincy in the car, he just loves anything that moves.
The boys actually playing together, with the car:
And Miles pushing Quincy on the swing, he was actually quite careful not to push to rough, in fact too careful, he slowed the swing down and eventually stopped it from pushing to lightly, at which time Quincy got upset and wanted me to push again.
Miles has been trying to climb trees recently. His first choice for a tree to climb is one that is perfectly straight and has no branches until about 20 feet up the trunk. So I directed him to a small tree that he can climb up, but it only has one small y about 2 feet off the ground, and that was not high enough for him, so we moved to this tree, he needs to be lifted up to the first y in the tree, but then he can climb up to a couple of other branches, and feel that he is climbing the tree and that he is high enough.
A little perpective for how high he actually is:

And here is the proud guy, he is just so excited and proud to be up in a tree.

HI there MIles
Thats the way to go - climbing tress is so much fun. Remember, though you might need some sneakers to give you support, those boots are cool, but might not support you
Have fun- Gramma loved climbing trees too.
Love Gramma M
