day at the park

Today we spent most of the afternoon outside, much to Abigail's delight. Lately she will bring me her shoes, and then run and try to open the front door. I have a feeling we will be spending a lot of time outdoors this summer! We headed over to the park for the first little bit, then spent some time with the girls across the street. The first thing Abigail goes to - the steering wheel. She loved having me spin it around for her!

I finally got her to go down the slide earlier in the week, and now we're working on getting her to sit down and go herself. She is too used to going down stairs, I guess, and went down on her belly the first time!

 The twisty slide is her favorite, probably because it isn't really a slide :)

She tried sooo hard to climb up it! She never made it all the way, but she tried hard!

She also discovered earlier this week she can fit in this cabinet, and close the door and play hide and seek!

flexing and tickling

where has time gone??? With this warm weather we've been heading outdoors and spending little time inside. For some reason I haven't sat down at the computer much in the evening, and am a bit behind on some blogging. A couple weeks ago we were down celebrating my sister's birthday, and having some fun. Abigail spent most of the afternoon outside, walking up and down the hill in my parent's backyard. Pre-dinner entertainment was this:

Riding down the hall in the chair, and tickling Katie's feet. Abigail thought this was hilarious, and would do it over and over!

She also knows how to flex and make a face, although in this picture it's a little cheesy. Isn't she the cutest?? 

it starts early

When your mom told you to clean your room, did you ever stuff things underneath the bed? I sure did!  We also had a hole in our wall downstairs, called the hidey-hole. We hid a lot of things in there! Abigail has taken to throwing things under the bed, and forgetting about them. It made me laugh catching her in the act!

Does your child also love to run around naked? This was after an afternoon bath - she took off as soon as she was out of the water!

Gymnastics meet #3 - versus BYU. Have you guess that we enjoy these?  Joe even caught a free t-shirt! I was especially excited when we found out it was in my size.
