It's done!

Ryan worked very hard the past week and a half to complete Matthew's swing set! We got to play on it yesterday for the first time when Aunt Cara, Uncle Brian and Cousin Maia came to visit. Matthew took very well to the rock wall and loved the slide while Maia enjoyed the swings. Today after the rain stopped and Matthew woke up from nap, we went back outside for more playtime. This time, Matthew took it upon himself to climb the rock wall by himself! Ryan was standing very close just in case, but he didn't need much help at all. Once at the top, he scooted to the slide and went down all by himself. He did that over and over for a while until we moved him to the swings. He actually liked the swings today and really likes his toddler swing we got for him yesterday. It sits slightly reclined so he can relax while being pushed. He also liked to do short swings on his glider. We still have to set up the sandbox under the clubhouse and mulch out the play area, but the hardest part is over. School is out on Thursday for the summer and we are looking forward to many play dates on the new swing set this summer. Take a look at our picture site for more pictures of the set and Matthew playing! Enjoy!
