Spring!

We didn't do much of anything during Spring Break this year which is just exactly what we all needed! Scarlett's preschool was out and so was Chris, and while we did a lot of relaxing around the house, we also had some fun. We took Scarlett to the zoo for the first time. It was a beautiful sunny day, almost hot! We didn't take a ton of pictures, but we all had a great time. They have a great children's zoo and Scarlett said her favorites were the alligators and the flamingos of all things.

We've also been doing some "practicing."  She's been practicing on the big-girl swings which actually scares me to death.  I've seen several kids at the parks we go to just flop right out face first.  She does good though.

 

We also practiced pedaling, and finally got it down! She would not pedal her trike but always wanted to just scoot herself around on it in the grass. This drove me crazy because as physical as she is, I know she could pedal. We took her out on the sidewalk and kept at it until she did it!  She did not want to stop and kept going up and down the sidewalk.  Now she's ready for a little bit bigger  bike....good thing her birthday is right around the corner!  She's already called Grandma and Pa and told them she wants a bigger bike!
