Braiden's First Playset!!

Well...it's no super-duper wooden swing set with a winding slide and clubhouse, but it's still SUCH FUN!!!! We debated on what to get him for outside fun this summer - we wanted:
  • a slide
  • something he could climb on
  • something to hide in or sit inside
  • a basketball goal
  • a swimming pool
  • a swing or two

If you've ever priced something that encompasses each of those features, WOW! We just can't swing that right now (no pun intended). So, we searched online, at Wal-Mart, and at Toys R Us and came up with this. It's a slide, a "rock" wall, a basketball goal, a football toss and a soccer goal! And, it came with a toddler sized basketball, soccer ball and football!!! Braiden took to it right away and he LOVES it!! It only took 2 tries to figure out how to climb up the wall, sit down and slide down the slide!!! He's such a big man!! We're so proud that he can sit on his butt and slide 2 feet to the ground!!! Ahhh...parenthood. We ended up getting it at Toys R Us (not a soul in Wal-Mart felt like helping with anything larger than a waterhose that afternoon).

Way to go Braiden...that play set he will enjoy for a while. There is always time for the big wooden ones when he gets bigger and can enjoy it more. I love the picture with him on the slide- he looks like "oh ya, I got it going on" Too cute!!
