New Swingset

So we all bundled up (even Zoe) so we could go out to the backyard and test out the new swingset. It was hats, mittens, long johns and of course our coats to brave the cold (although this day was pretty warm for CT in January).

Zachary really enjoyed using the swing. He wanted to go higher and higher. He also insisted that Mama swing too. Mama isn't so sure she loves to swing as much as Zachary does but she tried to teach him how to "pump" his legs while she was swinging.

Daddy got in the action pushing Zachary meanwhile since Zachary wasn't so good at pumping his legs just yet.

We were able to convince Zachary to test out the slide a few times too. He had a little trouble with the ladder up the first time but now we think he is a pro. He just needs more practice as soon as winter ends. He was so excited that we had to coax him inside and each day he stares at the window in hopes of warmer days and more swinging.
