It needs geritol....

I think this barn could use a shot of iron or vitamins or something...and so could I.
*********************
We had the toot toot this afternoon, and boy does she keep me busy. She is just so full of life...but I did succeed in getting her to take a nice nap.

Remember how I told how much she likes to be outside? I had her outside a time or two, and I put her in her stroller and went for a walk around the block. After all that, she went to sleep fairly easy. Slept about an hour and a half...much more than she slept when she was just 5 or 6 months old.

Well, she had been up long enough to get her diaper changed and fooled around a few minutes. She went and got her jacket for me...she wanted me to know that she wanted to go outside! It was warm enough till she didn't need to it. I took her outside, but all she wants to do is go up and down the steps...so I brought her back in.

After her mom came home, I found the You Tube video of Feist singing 1, 2, 3, 4...one of Lorelei's favorite song. She came and climbed up in my lap and was really trying to sing along. Such a sweet little voice.

And she loves seeing that video of herself with the shopping cart...she just looks at us and grins with the most mischievous look in her eyes....

She's got nerve

First of all, I did NOT take these pictures...they are of my daughter and her tandem partner/instructor. A few years ago, she and one of her friends decided they wanted to try skydiving. So they looked into it and decided to do a tandem jump--that is where you have a little bit of training and then are harnessed in with someone who is an experienced jumper.
She did enjoy it, but hasn't gone again. I think she was most amazed by the quietness...

Busy, busy, busy....

Sarah sent these to me the other morn...I think you might get the idea of how busy Lorelei can be.
But who can complain? She keeps herself occupied and happy.

Her mommy, her aunt and I went on a shopping expedition yesterday and she had a blast. She was saying 'hi' to everyone or else waving to them. And was totally fascinated by the other kids. We had her stroller, but she did not want to stay in it. She like to be down and walking around...

We stopped for pizza on the way home--that is one of her favorites. You would have thought she would be tired and fussy but she was totally entertained while there, as well as being entertaining.
