Girl's Day Out

Ryan is coaching golf alllll day long, so I decided that Leah, Lucy, and I were going to have some quality girl's time. We packed up our backpack with water, snacks, and rain gear and headed out for a local county park. The weather forecast said 10% chance of rain. It of course began raining just as we pulled into the parking lot. But it wasn't raining very hard, and fortunately, Leah has and adventurous spirit. So we set off down the trail anyway, because who doesn't like an occasional adventure in the rain? And because if I had turned around at that point the dog would have certainly become mutinous. Lucy was very excited about a hike at the park. Leah was screaming, "I love hiking!" in this picture... We stopped at a little shelter for a while to snack, have a water break, and play around. Leah found a dragon nest near by, so we left some acorns. That's what baby dragons eat. Who knew? "Hey - can I go in that backpack? I'm getting tired!...

Entertainment

Leah is singing, singing, singing these days... Some nights we hear her singing all kinds of songs to herself after we put her to bed. One of her new favorites is "Twinkie Doodle." We tried to teach her how to say "Yankee" for a while and then figured, why bother? We like this Twinkie Doodle character better. The other video is her very first knock knock "joke." Often while I am cooking dinner she hangs out in the kitchen with me, being my helper and entertainment in one.
