Lots of Photos

She loves to play basketball. And when she does she likes to hang on the rim after she throws the basketball through. When she makes a basket I cheer and say, "You're a superstar" and she just smiles & giggles. I kinda want to move it up to the next level for her, but there is like 3-4 inches to the next level and I think that may be too far. She's far too good at the first level, even after graduating from base level.
The bottom picture here is also a favorite. She is gnawing on a pinecone from our bushes. We went and picked a few off the ground amd she was facinated by the texture. She loves this little car. She still doesn't foot-power it herself, but loves being pushed around in it. She holds up her leggs the entire time - that has to be building some amazing leg strength.
We played in the sandbox for a while today too. We played with everything outside a while today. It is such a great day out. The top picture she is picking her feet out of the sand after I buried them. She is brushing them off too. Just last week she hadn't figured out yet that she can pick up her feet to unbury them; she was digging them out before. It's so neat to see them learn things and figure things out.
She tried eating the crabapples that were on the ground, but those don't taste so good. So, we went to the apple trees & picked one (BTW - they are ready to be picked - early this year!) She thought it was very tasty. Actually, she likes picking things and then eating them. Normally she isn't a fan of raw tomatoes, but if I let her pick it herself from the plat then she wants to eat it. I can't wait to have a big garden with her. She's going to love it.
I took these while she was playing in the sanbox. The one with the big open smile looks so different from the closed mouth pictures. She is cute in all of them.
