Today Ava Went Up The Slide

It's just too nice out to stay home so it was back to Schneider Park for the Waechter's this evening.

Mom and I were curious to see if you'd want to slide or if we would spend all of our time at the swings. 

We got our wish and then some. 

We spent all of our time at the slides tonight and after a number of trips down the big slide you opted for the smaller tandem one. 

This time, though, after going down you thought walking to the side of the equipment and using the steps was too much of a trip, so, you turned around to try and climb up the slide. 

I started to discourage you and tell you to use the steps properly, but mom made a good point.

"How many times did you do this as a kid?

I thought about it and figured numbers don't go that high. 

You had more fun going up the slide than down it. 

When the short tandem slide became too easy and you needed a bigger challenge you ran across the playground to the taller half-twist. 

After going down the slide you turned right around and climbed up it. 

It all goes back to the lack of fear you show. We want you to test your boundaries but it seems you don't have any. 

I blame the "up slide" on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse for putting this in your head. :)
