You can learn a lot...

by having older friends. We went to the park today with a good friend and her son who is about 11 months older than Brady. Rhett is an extremely smart kiddo and he was showing Brady the ropes...

He taught Brady how to drive the fire truck

And the art of giving and receiving head bonks



He is also teaching Brady to give "pat pats" and "knuckle knocks" because that is what all the cool kids do.

A day at the park can't be all fun and games- they have to get upset at some point... (I can honestly say that I have no idea why they are making these faces!)

Apparently Brady was not ready to man the fire truck alone!


We packed a lunch a had a picnic on one of the few grass spots by the play scape, we were having a great time until a very bold squirrel decided to join us. I have never seen a "wild" animal so unafraid of people. Despite Rhett continually telling him "No No Squirrel" and me chasing him off- that little guy just kept coming back for more! I think we were more afraid of him than he was of us!
