Exploring
Well I don't know if it is here to stay or not... but the warm weather found us. I have been watching the news, and northern Utah is getting pounded with snow. But here in Lehi, we are just enjoying the sun. In fact, Brian saw a guy mowing his lawn yesterday! Crazy. Well I decided to take Annika outside to play, and explore the backyard. We had a lot of fun, of course Annika didn't want to come inside.
She loves her new swing set. I really think that she would sit on the swing all day long. She even started getting brave, and would let go of one side, and swing only holding on with one hand. I really think she was on the swing for a good 30 minutes. She didn't want to get off, but her hands were freezing cold so I made her.
Then she thinks she can climb up the slide, not quite but she sure tries. Then we spent a lot of time, just walking around the back yard. She was picking up leaves and rocks. For a while she just sat down in the grass.
It was just so nice outside! I think that we are going to have a lot of fun this summer. Maybe i'll get a good tan if we spend all day everyday outside. We'll see.
Annika has started doing so many new things lately it is crazy. The other day she figured out that if she turns around in circles, the ground looks funny when you stop. She couldn't even stand up! She is nodding yes, or no when you ask her a question. She jumps... Or tries to it is hilarious. She puts so much effort into it, and doesn't really go anywhere. She really likes watching the wiggles on TV. ( I really don't like this show) but it is the only show, she will stand still and watch for a couple of minutes. She starts boucing up and down, (she is dancing with them). It is pretty cute to watch.
(I love this picture! They are so cute!)
She has been really into books with flaps that you can open, and I have a puzzle book that she wants to read all day long. We take the shapes out and then we put them all back in again. She is so much fun!
P.S. we got Annika's pictures taken the other day, by Talia Draper. She ended up putting some pictures of Annika on there so if you want to look at them you can go to Taliadraperphotography.blogspot.com
