Gideon is obsessed with our slide. And by obsessed I mean, he has already told me he is going to name is first born "yellow slide" obsessed. He makes a beeline for the slide every time someone lets him out into the backyard. He can climb the ladder all by his self and will sit at the top and wait patiently (read: yell loudly) for someone to stand at the bottom and catch him. He will usually let anyone catch him but he is particular to the neighbor Aura. He hollers her name repeatedly until she comes over to catch him. Once he hooks someone in, he just makes the circuit over and over and over again: up the ladder, down the slide, up the ladder, down the slide.......... I could seriously make a full time job out of catching him at the bottom of the slide. And it would be great because my pay is the giant smile that lights up his face when he sees me ready to catch him at the bottom of the slide.

Oh how sweet. Imagine what he'll be like when he gets a little older and realizes he doesn't need anyone to catch him anymore! You'll probably have to drag him in for lunch and dinner.
