Thorkildson Christmas

Last weekend my parents came to visit. We had Christmas then because I am not up for that long of a car ride until after the baby comes.

Clothes

Natalia didn't like the first two outfits I picked out for her this morning, or at least she took them both off, so this is how she spent part of the morning while I was sorting laundry.

Later I was on the computer and she was being very quiet. I turned around and saw that she had put on one of her daddy's shirts and was picking up some of his dirty clothes. The rest of the basket was empty so I followed her.

And found this.

Playground

There is a new playground in our neighborhood. Yesterday Natalia and I went to check it out. She seemed to have fun. She doesn't quite understand what to do. She likes to climb up and sit at the top of the slide, but she only occasionally slides down. After she sits there for a while she usually stands back up and climbs back down to the ground.



Halloween

Warm October Weather

The weather has been so nice out. This past weekend we took Natalia to the park. She has reached an age where she doesn't listen and just likes to run. I've tried to take her for walks by where we live, but I am worried about all of the cars. It was nice for her to not be in her stroller and be able to run around. I wasn't sure if she would play on the equipment. About a month ago she wouldn't set foot in sand, but it didn't seem to bother her anymore.

We spent Sunday at Jon's parents' house. Last week she figured out the sliding screen door going out to the deck. She loves being able to go in and out whenever she pleases.
