We've been getting to know them better since around May. Shane and I pop over for quick visits every week or two, and the boys splashed around at the pool once.
I met my best friend growing up when I was three. Shane's getting close to that age, and I would love for him to have a friend. Especially one like that. Plus, they're good people.
Saturday was a lot of fun. The boys played outside partly with each other, partly next to each other. Mike, Jessica, Carrie and I got to enjoy adult conversation. It's socialization at all levels, so I'm thrilled.
It's maybe a 10 second jog from their front door to ours, so we'll see where this goes. Mike and I talked about taking turns tag teaming yards, because we're both having trouble stopping weeds and watching a little boy simultaneously.
Here's a clip of Daniel and Shane swinging into action.
This is a clip from the boys playing out back at the BBQ. Later, Shane and Daniel got to try and climb into a hammock together. There were some pretty cute failures before I intervened.
There was a hand-me down small moon bounce, as well! I didn't get any video of the boys on that one, but Carrie snapped a quick pick of us trying to collapse all the air out!
Daniel ran up our driveway on Friday, as well. He and Mike had been on a walk when Daniel stopped and demanded to knock. The boys were laughing and playing upstairs for a while before it occurred to me to grab a camera. I missed most of the giggles, but I caught the tail end of it.
It's hard to parent and get good footage. The boys ended up running around chasing each other in a circle on the driveway afterwards. I think everyone would love for them to end up as buddies. They certainly are cute playing together!
