Outside!

Maddy's one desire in life is to be outside. She will do anything to get outside. In fact, we can't even leave our front door open anymore to let light in because if we do, Maddy will make a break for it! And before you say, "Well, why don't you just lock the screen door?" Let me tell you about a baby and her clever little fingers that have figured out how to slide the bolt over on the door. So even though she can't work the knob that locks the door, she can still get the screen unlocked and before we know it, there's a baby dancing around on the front porch in her diaper or streaking out towards the front sidewalk.

Luckily, Saturday was absolutely beautiful though and Maddy got a trip to the park where she got to slide and run and play in dirt. Three of her favorite things to do. She also got to swing!




I still can't believe that she uses the big kid swings. She can't climb up into them, but she wants nothing to do with the infant swings and once she's in them. She holds her own. 

After playing for a bit, she decided to do a little exploring and found something really great!


She was absolutely soaked by the time we got her home, but I know of no happier baby then Maddy that day!
