play is hard work

owen has a tough job...to play. sometimes we make it easier on him by taking him places specifically designed for it. sunday we went to edison park fest. it involved a lot of inflatables. owen tried out the maze that ended with a tunnel...



then it was off to perfect the art of the bounce (which goes along with the knee drop and body slam)...




he did pause for a wave and cheesy grin to mommy...




owen helped daddy "win" a stuffed crayon. i believe we bought it for $6, but i am told it was "won"...




self-portrait...they never turn out that good, do they?...

then tonight we decided to visit the park after dinner before it started getting dark earlier and we can't anymore :(...

not sure what the rest of the week holds in store for us, but i imagine that play will be a daily part of it...at least for owen...i have a feeling laundry will have a big part of it for me...
