Cookies, Playdough, and More Playground Fun

Addilyn helped me make cookies.  She was excited because she got to lick the beater (that was always my favorite part too).  As these were Asher-friendly cookies(no egg), I didn't feel even a little bit guilty about letting her either.
Scoop.
Here she was forming the dough ball.  We baked a dozen and then froze the rest in little balls for easy baking later.  She's concentrating so hard.
Lick.
A cheesy pose by the finished product.  Mmm...cookies.
 She also helped me make playdough. 
We made four different colors.
And then Asher pretended to eat it.  I think he made a hotdog bun.
There is this one park that we are really loving lately.  It's a couple miles north and east of our place so we bike to it.  It has an awesome tree to climb.
The boys were a little more tentative.  I guess it's hard to get traction in Crocs.
Standing.
Looking cute in his swing.
Super happy baby face!
 Serious baby face.
This playground is huge and complex.  It's pretty much all wood (except for the occasional tire, etc).  It has a train engine which the kids love.
Dropping wood chips through the top of the train engine.  I don't remember if this somehow repaired the engine or if it signified raining.  Maybe it wasn't involved at all in their imaginary game.  Maybe it was just fun.  Either way, the kids love this park and the fun imagination games they play with Daddy there.
Here we were trying to recreate a picture we took of Asher and Elias when Elias was about Albert's age. 
I realize now that we never posted it to our blog and only had it on our phones.  Oops!  Well here is the original picture.  Cuties!
All four in the baby swings.
