Natalie's New Backyard Toy

We were so excited to finally get this airplane for Natalie. We had seen it at Costco about a year ago when we first moved here, and when we were ready to buy it, of course it was gone. So Rob recently was checking online for something similar and found the exact airplane. It took Rob about five hours to put it together (kid's toys are not simple like they used to be), all the while with an anxious Natalie playing on the partly-assembled plane. By the time it was all finished, it was dark and cold outside so Natalie couldn't play on it for very long. The next morning, she woke up before the crack of dawn when it was still dark and the first thing that came out of her mouth was "fly the airplane?" Later we invited her friends over and they all had a blast playing on it.

That looks like a lot of fun. I love when kids can just play in the backyard. It looks like she loves it.
