Three Little Monkeys

We spent most of last Friday afternoon at Pebble Playground with Violet, Brenna, and Kim. We did a lot of sliding. ("Sliding! Go on it! Together! Best friends! Climb up it! Slide down it! No help you please! I will do it OWN SELF!")
Kim and I giggled endlessly over their slide process: they all climbed up (with Cody and Violet waiting somewhat impatiently for Cordelia to catch up.) Then they all sat and stared. Then Violet would take off, Cody would follow, and Cordelia--surprised every time--would come in at a distant third. She's usually the first to jump, but so enjoyed sitting up there with the big kids that she didn't want it to end. : )




That is, until we went on the tire swing...
"Swinging! Go higher! Push you faster!"

"Monkey bars! Hang on them! Lift you up! No hold hands. I do it OWN SELF!"
"Bouncy bridge! I do it! Faster. Running, running! Keep your breadstick in your hand! No help you! I do it OWN SELF!"
"Eyes hurt you! Sunglasses. Get them! Put them on...please. All better!"

These are irresistable. I love that Cordelia ALWAYS has a snack in her hand! :) :) And... speaks her mind. When you ponytail her hair, she doesn't look like a baby anymore. She looks like a little lady. Want my baby niece back!
