Last week was Brian's Bday and this week it's Leslie's Bday. So, we've swapped babysitting duties for Friday night! Ty and Leslie went out on a date and we kept Nathan overnight! He's been a pleasure! We took he and Helen to Mickey D's for dinner and then to the park for a bit of playtime. We told them they could play in the "Play Place" but when we went to go in, a sign said it was closed for repairs. (bummer) It took some convincing to get them into the car and to go to the park! They played and played and ran and climbed! I think Helen's favorite part was the slides! Nathan got a kick out of the wiggling bridge. (a swinging bridge) He may have been on one before, but he acted like it was a new thing! I told him to jump on it and he thought that was great too! He liked that it wiggled after he jumped! He also liked the climbing obstacles. Some of the things he was climbing on looked a little too much for such a small boy, but he tackled them like he had disjointed body parts! He's grown so much since they moved here! It's amazing how time flies and how fast they grow. I've been so caught up in Helen and keeping her on a daily basis I've missed out on getting to see Nathan like I used to.

After the park, we came home, had baths (with bubbles of course) and they splashed and washed and played! They were both in there at the same time, but some how there was enough room for all of Helen's bath toys and them too! They didn't seem to mind.

Helen was ready for bed by nine and Nathan could have gone for much longer. By the time I got Helen in bed I was gearing up for getting him settled too! We read his books and I gave him his milk. He is now sleeping soundly on "Nathan's bed" in our sitting room off of our master. I think he likes that bed. (It's a futon that is actually comfortable.) Hopefully the rain and all the energy expelled will allow them both to sleep well into the morning.

Tomorrow will be a fun day. Maybe the rain will have passed by the morning and we can do some things outside. Rainy days are no fun on a Saturday! Rain or no, I'll have some pics for you on the next post!
