Outside Fun

Avery loves going outside. I don't remember enjoying being outside when I was little, and I know it's not my favorite place to be as I've gotten older, but for Avery - there's no place she'd rather be! She is always busy climbing up and down the steps or picking up and throwing pecans. Her newest outside activity is to play with Cannon - through the fence of course. Cannon is our very untamed boxer. He really does not get that he can't jump on top of her (out of love, of course!) So we keep a very close eye on her when Cannon is around, but she loves feeding him string cheese through the fence now! Here are a few pics from the weekend...
Developmental Goal: Climbing up and down stairs - check and check!
Finding pecans...
Holding it tightly so mommy won't make her throw it down
(A time or two she's attempted to eat them, so I keep a close eye on those too!)
I don't think she likes being outside one bit, do you?
Chasing after the basketball...she was SO happy once she finally caught it!
Playing with Cannon...
He licks her fingers and she thinks it is the funniest thing ever!
Laughing at Cannon...
Oh, and from the Honey Do List post, I realize you all know us too well. I left a list for Charlie that morning, only to come home and find a revised version that he left for me. I called him at work after I finished laughing and the first thing he said was, "Am I in trouble???" HA! Have a great Wednesday....we're halfway there!

She is so cute! Stormie is the same exact way about being outside. She would stay out there from daylight to dark if I would let her! I am so glad it is cooling off so that I can enjoy being out there too cause it has been WAAAAAAAAY to hot outside!

since she loves the outdoors so much maybe one day she can have a little fisher price house out there, that would be something fun for her to play in. every time we go through the garden center at walmart with daniel's mom she always says "one day i will get to buy one of those houses for my grandchild" and then gives us the sad face...every time we go in there, lol. but she says that about everything baby/child related =)
