The last few weeks...

We are getting toward the end of Summer in Phoenix and find that we can go out much more during the day, which we are thoroughly enjoying. You have gone through another growth spurt and are tall enough to reach all the door knobs and counter tops, which you find quite exciting!!

What else is new:
-You are very into shoes. You love picking out shoes and bringing them to us to put on you and you like bringing us our shoes if you think we need to be heading outside.














-For breakfast you love eggs, yogurt, oatmeal and fruit, or some comination there of. You especially like drinking your cereal or yogurt by picking up the bowl. You think this is quite funny and it's so cute, I keep encouraging you by grabbing the camera:)



















-The other day we went to a park near the house and the ducks were walking right up to you and you didn't flinch. I didn't get a picture of it, but one time you weren't in the stroller, you were just standing by yourself on the sidewalk and the duck literally bit at your shirt and you didn't move an inch. It looked as though you were studying the duck. That same trip to the park you found a tall hill and just had a hoot running up the hill and back down the hill. You must have done it a dozen times, each time with it being more and more exciting.














-Last Friday we went to a Train Park. You love trains, especially moving your hand to say "toot toot". We road the train around the park which you enjoyed and then went to the playground. I could tell how much you'd grown, you were truly independent playing on the gym equipment. You also loved playing in the sand with the other kids. You are really noticing other kids and wanting to play with them more.
