The adventurous side of our son!

Monday we decided to head out to the Julia Davis parks. It's one of my favorite parks in Boise. Quincy had so much fun playing on the playground. This year he's actually big enough to understand the concept of a playground's equipment.

In the picture below Quincy is working up the nerve to go down the "big kid slide". Look at his face!

Doesn't it just scream.... what will happen if I get in?

Here is he taking the plunge, or should I say dive. Literately he ended up going down on his tummy, feet first.

Ahhhh... but look at the exhilarated look on his face afterwards. It says: SUCCESS!

Here was one of the first pictures when we got to the playground. He, for some odd reason, was a little freaked about walking up this ramp. I don't know why. He was clinging to this 'hand rail' the whole way up.

Scared of a little ramp, but not fearless of slides and tunnels that lead to who knows where.

The hardest part of these tunnels was getting his feet out first, which he was insistent on doing.

Taking a little breather after a lot of playing.

"So Quincy are you gonna go down this slide by yourself?" YUP.

And of course if he can go down the slide by himself, than surely he can climb up it by himself too, right?

All in all, we will be back for more fun and adventures at the parks.

That's so cute. I always get so nervous about letting Savannah up in those tunnels (like at McDonalds). I dread the thought of having to crawl through them to get her out of them if she can't find her way.

I wonder if Q was nervous about walking up that ramp cuz' of the holes in it??
