Last Saturday was absolutely GORGEOUS! We decided to take advantage and go to a park to let Rachel play on all the fun stuff. I love the fact that she is now able to climb in tunnels and go down slides and really enjoy the playground. Of course she still needs a lot of help, but she absolutely loves it. I know she's a smiley kid anyway, but I don't think she stopped smiling the whole time we were there!
Scooting through the tunnel
Daddy had to help her climb up one of the tunnels... I think he enjoyed himself too!
She made it through the flat ones all by herself though!
She LOVED this slide... Mommy would wait at the bottom to help her off, then she'd walk back over to where Daddy was, he would help her up, up the ramp she ran, then back down the slide again. I think she did that about 10 times (doesn't sound like much, but for such little legs, it took a while!)
Come on, guys, let's go play some more!
I take it back, the smile disappeared when we had to leave... she sure did sleep well that night, though. :) I can't wait until the summer so we can go there more!
Rachel has really started helping us out around the house lately. She puts clothes into the dryer, shuts the door and even pushes the button to start it! We just have to be careful, because she has tried to put the dogs toys in a few times too. She really likes folding- actually, it's more like she takes what we have just folded and shakes them out. (I guess she sees us shake the folds out of everything!) She loves helping unload the dishwasher, which makes me more than a little nervous. She will just bring a plate right over to me while I'm putting the silverware away! And of course, she will answer the phone if it's available to her. (By the way, she is actually talking to Dustin's mom in the above picture)
