Ride to the park

Tonight I took both Maddy and Reagan to the park in one stroller for the first time. Maddy did quite well considering she had never ridden in the stroller like that before. Reagan held onto her hand. We walked all the way to the park, both kids got out and ran around great. When we first got there, Mom and I put them in the swings. Maddy just giggled out loud. She loved it. Reagan wanted to swing next to her sister.

After the swing set, Maddy crawled around and pulled up on all sorts of stuff. Reagan ran around and did her usual stuff - played on the rings, slides and climbing things. After about 30 minutes, it was time to pack up and head home to make dinner.

I got a nice little workout as well. Pushing 60+ pounds in a stroller was hard work. :)

Papa's birthday and Ice Cream

Today was my dad's birthday. After dinner, we met him over at the new Greaters for desert. The girls were thrilled. Quite frankly, so was I. Maddy was already pushing her limit with her energy level - she was ready for bed by the time we got there.
We ended up appeasing her with ice cream. Boy that was interesting. I gave her a bite of mine - whoa. She loved that. (that is probably an under-statement). Jordan gave her a bite of hers. Ha ha. Maddy grunted until she got more. Then Jim gave her some of the black raspberry chip. Ha ha! That was it. She was over the top in love with ice cream. Woo hoo.

Maddy and grass

Maddy apparently has my sensitive skin. We put her down in the grass tonight and it took all of 30 seconds for her to start fussing. When I looked, her legs were getting red. Ugh. Poor thing. She likes the grass, but probably just reacts to it.

One of the boys brought over a really big dried leaf. She love it. When she grabbed it, it crunched. That made her laugh. She kept squishing it in different places and she just had a good time doing that. When she got tired of the leaf, she wanted to stand up and walk.

Umi Power!

We went outside tonight to kick the ball around with Reagan. It took five minutes for her to realize the neighbors were outside and she could hang out with them. :) So we did. We walked over as we usually do and interrupted their nice evening. They never really seem to care.

Reagan and the boys were playing outside. At one point, I heard one of the boys yelling at something. I'm not sure what. But I turned to hear her say "Umi Power!" and she was off - running with her hand in the air like a super hero.

okay.

Fox and the Hound

Today, Jim picked up "The Fox and the Hound" at Sams. While standing in line, the cashier handed it to her. She looked at the cover and said "Ohh the Fox and the Hound, I love this".

We were stuck on how she knew what movie it was.

Contraband in her room

Jim and I are sitting on the couches and out pops Reagan from her bedroom. Why? Because she has something in her room that she is not allowed to have.

Interesting. Neither Jim nor I have been in her room for an hour or so. How she got it into her head that she was not allowed to have it is beyond me. I am not even sure what it is. I guess I should go look. :)
