We had a great day today. We got up early and played on the floor – or stood on the floor a lot. She is wanting to stand all the time. She almost refuses to sit or lay down. So we practice cruising quite a bit. After lunch, we took a trip out to see Marty (my hair stylist) to pick up a flat iron – and to show off the little one. By the time we got home, Grammy was here and she was ready to take a nap. I put her down and Grammy and I went through the ton of clothes that she got for Reagan.  just kidding mom.

Jim and I took off (instead of going to karate) on a long trail walk in the back of our neighborhood. There are some trails that run from one neighborhood to another as well as down to Doe Run Lake. We had taken the girls and the dogs on the trail to the other neighborhood, but wanted to try out the one to Doe Run before we bring the baby out. Boy were we glad we didn’t bring her in the stroller – or the dogs. My gosh. It was a mess. It was muddy and rocky AND it had plenty of overgrown places that just would not have worked for a baby stroller OR dogs. Actually the dogs probably would have loved it. But it would have been a pain trying to control them. I thought we would have been gone about 30 minutes – nope – we were gone for an hour.
