Quite the Life

We went on a walk to the library yesterday. It was 70 degrees, the sun was in and out of the clouds, the wind was blowing. It was perfect. I could live in that weather every day. And the girl, she loves the outside. I offered her a toy while she was laying in her stroller and she looked up at me like, what do I need a toy for?

We've been spending a lot of time outdoors lately.
Each day we climb our way out of the basement and go to the backyard. She loves laying or bouncing on the trampoline. This is the life I guess.
She also loves the swing. She gets a look of terror if I push her too high, but it quickly turns into a smile. We hung out in Provo while Juan took a test. It was beautiful outside and she just sat and ate puffs and chewed on her book. She prefers to eat her books rather than read them.
And here she is discovering grass. She moved her body around the whole perimeter of her blanket feeling at the grass. The jury is still out on whether she likes it or not.
And one last look of ponder. She's got so much going on in that brain of hers.

Perfect girl! I really love that last picture of her. That really does look like a very adult pose/expression. I hope I get to meet little Millie some day soon!

Cameron loves to eat his books too---it's so fun to watch him begin to turn the pages!

I LOVE that last photo of Amelia! Watching them experience and enjoy the simplest things is the best--like exploring grass!

You've got such a sweetie. That little pouty lip is adorable! We've been having some amazing weather too. Andrew hates grass though. Doesn't like the feel I suppose.

Wow, she totally looks like she's just taking everything in... she's deep. Isn't it so weird how your life changes when you have a kid and quit working? It's totally the life when you get to hang out at the park and go for walks.
