A Daddy Swing

Sooo, when I came out to check on the fam this afternoon this is what I found.
Mike had been talking about rigging up something on the rope that the baby swing used to hang from but wasn't sure how we was going to do it.
And, viola, a broken broom handle becomes a swing.
I watched with my eyes half covered, peeking out to see this contraption in use.

The girls love, love, love it!

Emma deomonstrated the "birdie" move first. And, while Mike was holding on to her and swinging her back and forth, she tweeted a sweet little tweet just like a baby bird.
She was so happy and so proud of herself.


But, it stinks when your turn is over.
This is a very sad Emma, ready to turn into tantrum Emma. Ha.
But, luckily there was no tantrum. I explained to her that we take turns and share and that she would soon have another turn. This seemed to make sense to her and stopped crying :). Yay!


Lily wanted to show me how she flew like a bird too. I was able to handle it a bit better so definitely have more pictures of Lil having a blast.




Since having this up, the girls will just go over and hang from it or run and jump like Lily is in the video. It has definitely given them something else to do in the yard!

Oh...and Mike's outfit, you can just blame it on me for not doing the correct load of laundry yet. Or, you could say he just threw on a pair of shorts without really realizing the fashion statement he was making haha...love you my striped, plaid, boot wearing guy! You're cute no matter what you wear :)
