The Great Outdoors

(guest post by daddy) Little One likes to run around a lot and managed to scrape both of her knees (she seemed so proud of herself and pointed to her band-aids like they were badges of honor). After her fall, she became very interested in the concept of falling down and asked us to read "Humpty Dumpty"and "Jack and Jill" to her alot. After going to the aquarium earlier this month, Little One is now also very interested in sharks.

Little One continues to talk more and more, but we still have a hard time understanding her sometimes. She is using more words and putting her words together to come up with new phrases such as "humpty dumpty...fall down.....sad".

Here are some pictures from this month.....

As summer came around, the weather around here had been cooler than usual. Little One was spending a lot of time indoors ......... What do you mean it's too cold to go outside?!!!?

In July, temperatures started to go up......you mean I can go outside!?

....Okay mama, I'm all ready to go outside.....

First stop.....jumping on the trampoline.....

next stop, petting the sharks and rays at the outdoors shark lagoon....

next stop, practicing tai chi in the front yard....

and finally, some fun time in the swimming pool.....

Now and then
