Look What I Can Do!

Amanda is shedding her cautious nature and trying new things every day!

We have removed the baby swing from our play structure and put in a hanging bar (Amanda calls it the hand swing!). She can get her legs up on it and hang upside down... without her hands sometimes, but apparently not for pictures!

Ready..... Set..... Hang!



We have recently discovered a pizza place closeby called Putters. There is an indoor putt-putt course, a game room/arcade, pool tables, lazer tag, and an awesome enclosed indoor playground. Amanda has conquered the rock wall, and is quite proud of herself! I wish we would have discovered this place months ago...

She also got quite BRAVE at Grandpa's pool yesterday (at the rec center in the mobile home park he lives in). Unfortunately I left the camera in the car, so I couldn't document her bobs, holding her breath under the water, swimming with the support of only a swim noodle, and jumping (or should I say FLYING) into the pool! When she realized she could touch almost the whole way across the pool - it only gets to 4 feet deep - her confidence skyrocketted. We'll have to see if that translates into swimming lessons tomorrow!

Looks like you have a little monkey for a daughter..-smile- I like the kids club pics. Lisa talks so much about it but I have not ever been there.
