Outside Fun!

It is finally getting warmer outside, and that means that Amelia can now play outdoors while we are in the yard! I have been waiting for this all winter! Mind you it still gets a bit cold, so we keep a jacket/sweater on her. Rob bought a new soccer ball so Amelia and I followed outside to play with him. This was the first time Amelia has felt grass between her toes...and she LOVED IT! I was amazed since I had heard that most babies hate the feeling. Well she did not. It was fun!

She also helped Rob with the soccer ball. She kicked it and the held on to it so it wouldn't roll away. I think that she did not know what to really think about the whole experience, but she did amuse us!

Rob took a photo of Amelia and I after all our fun!


Today, I needed to get some yard work done (as it looks awful after the winter). So, Amelia and I once again headed outside! Today, since the sun was out we put some sunscreen, shades and a hat on so Amelia wouldn't get burned. When I put her sunglasses on and laid her down on the blanket, she closed her eyes and acted as though she were just soaking it all in. She is an amazing little girl.



She decided that sun bathing was not that fun so, we pulled out her chair and she sat there playing. Obviously, things do not keep her attention for long, so we had to end our yard work a bit early...but at least we had some fun!
