Saturday Snap~Shots {park}

Nothing much to report. Brylee and I ventured to the park for the first time this season. She was quite the daredevil as she was not intimidated at all by the big slides or climbing on all the equipment. She was scared of the baby swing at first {although last year she loved it!}, but warmed up to it and even wanted to sit in the chair swing as well. The weather was warmer, but not the predicted 70 they talked about. It was cloudy all day with a slight wind, but Brylee and I sported dresses anyways! I also painted Brylee's toes today and she was so excited about picking out her color and blowing on them to help them dry.
She is quite the talker...4-5 word sentences. But lately, quite defiant. I am sure it is just the age but nonetheless not our favorite thing to deal with. Goes with the territory I guess! Today at Kohl's she kept saying.."I not happy"...I am sure the people were like why is your {almost} 2 yr. old saying that? My answer...who knows?! I don't know what would make a toddler so unhappy....seems like a great life to me...people waiting on your hand and foot, now worries, etc. Toddlers...they are quite the little people!

Bike Riding

It was a beautiful afternoon...temp near 60 {ok, I know that isn't warm for most, but considering we had the 5th snowiest winter on record...60 degrees is the new 80 around here!} and so after dinner Brylee and I took a walk. She rode in her wagon and grinned and jabbered on and on as I pulled her along. When we returned home, as I pulled her wagon into it's little parking space, I looked up and noticed her bike. My parents gave her this bike for her 1st birthday. Apparently, my dad was so excited to buy it when he saw it, that perhaps he didn't really realize that she most likely wouldn't be able to use it {her legs weren't even long enough to reach the pedals} till the following year. So, today was the day we broke out that cute pink and purple bike. Brylee was grinning from ear to ear when I asked her if she wanted to ride her bike. She kept saying "Bike Mommy peese {please} ride", so in fact that is what she did. She can reach the pedals now, and although she doesn't really understand how to make it go on her own yet, she LOVES it. She was so proud of riding her bike....and that moment made my day!
{here she is in all her glory...}
