Outside. Go out. Shoes on. Let's go.
Say any of these words within ear shot of Olivia and you better be prepared to go outside and spend at least an hour following her around making sure she doesn't eat another Rolly polly or pick every single flower in sight.
Olivia loves being outside. She's obsessed. Besides mama and dada it is her first word, only she says it like this, "ow-sigh" as she is running towards and pointing at the door.
She loves carrying around rocks, sitting in puddles, chasing birds, standing in the wind, and exploring every direction she can go.
She walks and walks and walks. She doesn't seem to get tired, hungry, or grumpy if she's outside. She just explores. Everything is exciting, everything get an excited "ooooo".
It doesn't matter how hot it is, it doesn't matter if it's raining. It's her happy place.
Its months away but I guess I should be prepared to spend this winter "ow-sigh", even if it's snowing and below freezing.
