It's About (Play)Time!

So the folks over at the building administration office finally gave in to parent pressure and replaced the dilapidated old playground set near the pool. It's about time! We normally don't allow Gabe to play with the old set since the cracks in the plastic could give him some nasty cuts. Now we don't have to bring him to Gymboree just so he can have a decent place to play at anymore. Yay!

Early this evening, we brought Gabe down to the pool for an after-dinner swim, and were pleasantly surprised to see not just one, but several new playhouses lined up for assembly! There are a lot of little kids in the building, and they probably have been waiting for these for a really long time now. Of those that had been assembled already, Gabe enjoyed playing with the pirate ship playhouse, which came complete with a telescope which he likes ("telescope" having been a fairly new addition to his rapidly expanding vocabulary). There was even a new slide and swing set! We can't wait to see the look on his face when he finally gets to play with the fully assembled playground.



Here's what some of the playsets look like. More pictures of Gabe in various stages of playtime nirvana to come in the next few days.
