Montclair Park

After music class we have been heading over to Montclair park. Our little group has been growing over the weeks. It is really fun.We really enjoy playing in the sand with the sand toys sometimes we bring our own and other times there are toys left in the park we can play with.This is a really cool tube slide. Holly isn't able to go down it on her own yet. Mira and Mila are both dare devils and they go down it head first which is amazing. Holly only wants to go down sitting.But she doesn't know how to climb into it on her own yet. So when she has someone to help sit her on it she is excited to go down it.On this particular day we made plans with Khan to join us with Gabriel at the park after music class. its the first time we have seen him outside of Chloe's house, so it was fun to watch him climb around on the slide.And play in the sand. Here is little miss playing peek-a-boo with me. Looking down over the play structure.She is so silly climbing up the stairs holding onto her shovels. It is very cute how they all like to hold onto there toys and try to climb at the same time.Holly likes the spiral slide but would rather sit on the base of it then actually slide down it. She doesn't quite know how to use the shovel yet, but she likes putting it into the bucket and stirring it.She does fill the bucket with handfuls of dirt, but that will take her forever to do. When I help her fill the bucket she enjoys dumping it out on top of herself. Usually it just lands in her lap, rather then over her head.Here are Chloe and Gabriel playing on the slide. Chloe is adorable when she tries to go down. She doesn't like to let go and she starts to go down and holds on tight. Its a good stretch though.There are some swings in the other play ground and when Holly wants to go on them she starts signing swing and more, but sometimes when she is really persistent she will grab my shoes so I can take her over.Just before we were leaving an old friend of ours showed up. Devlin and his dad and mom Lila. We hadn't seen them in forever so it was great to run into each other and chat. Devlin had this awesome wagon that Holly loved riding in. Devlin was a sweetie and helped push her.

You must know about all the babies in Berkeley by now! How fun! And so good to have the support of other moms.
Sand looks almost as fun as water...
