Daily Adventure

As soon as I get home from work everyday, Rachel wants to go on a walk. Today, she was stomping her foot on her shoe that was on the ground and trying to put her shoes on herself.
As soon as I get her shoes on every day, she runs towards the door. She has become really good at getting down the steps on her own. She turns the corner and is off and running.
I usually give her the freedom to go where she wants to. We go all around the condo complex and I follow behind. She usually goes the same way, but today we went to explore some other areas of the neighborhood. We usually go to the swings at some point, but not today.


My job the whole time is to follow closely enough to make sure she doesn't put anything she shouldn't into her mouth. Her favorite thing that she tries to pick up is cigarette butts.


At least today it was just flowers that I had to take out of her mouth.


She did help to get them out of her mouth today. She did not like how the flower tasted.


Her favorite place to go is to see our neighbor Logan. She absolutely loves to play with other kids and Logan loves to play with us. He is always asking to play with Rachel, although most of the time he just wants to show off his bike riding skills.


They have a little puppy that Rachel isn't too sure about. She wants to play with him but is nervous because he jumps on her. She has his ball and is luring him closer.


Ha. She got him to come closer.


They have this big ball that she loves to play with. She was rolling it all over the grass.
We usually spend an hour to an hour and a half outside roaming around. Rachel is definitely an outdoor kid.
