New Swingset

Unfortunately this isn’t a great photo, but I had to document the outfit Emilia put together today. These may be pajama pants, but they actually match the “dress” (it’s really a shirt, but Emilia always wants to wear it without pants) perfectly. And these are the Crocs that Emilia says have “two seatbelts” (the Mary Janes as opposed to the ones with only one strap across the back).

But today definitely warranted a special outfit; it was a big day—Emilia got her very own swingset (well, to share with her brother eventually). I found a second-hand Rainbow playset on Craig’s List, and today Agustín, with much help from my mom, spent the full day disassembling, moving, then reassembling it in our yard. We made it into a bit of a party, spending most of the afternoon/evening outside and having dinner with my parents on the deck. The job is about 80% complete, but Emilia couldn’t wait and was already playing on parts of it this evening. She’s already a big fan!

And a few photo highlights from the past month….
