Day at the Park

WOW! 4 posts in 1 weekend!

We spent a couple of hours at Frozen Head State Park this afternoon. It was great to relax and spend some time in the great outdoors. Jenna loved an open area near the entrance (we think she's conquered her dislike of the grass), as well as a playground that was there. She did pretty well on the trail, considering it was close to her naptime. Randy also flew our kite for her, which she loved. She kept saying "Whoa!" as she saw Elmo flying in the air. What fun!

Here's a video of our big girl; if you get motion sickness, please take a Dramamine before viewing!

The Many Faces of Jenna

Sometimes the best things in life are unplanned. Take, for instance, these pictures that were shot this afternoon right after Jenna ate her lunch. She had only a diaper on, her hair was tangled, she had a runny nose, and she was drooling like crazy. Nonetheless, we thought they really captured the many sides of her personality. Enjoy!

Playing Ball

We've really been enjoying this beautiful spring weather, and have been trying to let Jenna play outside as often as possible. She loves being outside, but doesn't particularly like walking in the grass. However, as you'll see below, she was interested enough in playing ball to endure the discomfort of walking on the grass!

Our Little Shopper

We bought Jenna a shopping cart filled with pretend boxes of food. She loves pushing it around and adding both real and pretend food to it. I'm sure she'll enjoy it for the next couple years!

At the Park

We took Jenna to the park tonight, and she had so much fun swinging, sliding, climbing, etc. Each time she got sand on her hands, she would hold them out and say, "Oh, no!" waiting for someone to help clean them off (see last picture). It was hilarious. She is such a princess, but she really plays hard too. Enjoy the pictures!

Mommy's Little Helper

Last weekend I was taking a break from mopping when Jenna decided to finish the job. What a big girl she is!!!
