Fun times on the slide



I always have to get a funny face pic with my niece. On Monday we hung out and had such fun. The morning was spent out on the swingset. She wanted me to sit at the end of the slide so she could come down and "bonk" me. We kicked around the ball for a little while, then I tried convincing her she had put ENOUGH water in her pool. Blowing up that thing was a challenge. I think her favorite activity was chasing me around the kitchen and living room. I came home with sore muscles from all the running. We watched some Olympics (she likes the swimmers) and swam some more, and played with the cat, and ran some more. It was the most active we've ever been. I came home with a ton of mosquito and chigger bites. I think they were growing in her pool water!

Some of the funny things she said:

Mommy, I see a guy on his bike with a big belly like you're going to have. (My sister is eight weeks prego :-} )

We're going to do that for sure!

Oscar, you're disgusting. (the cat had just pooped)

Oscar, don't you be mean to my baby.

I love Oscar, and he loves me.

Some day I'm going to be good like that. (talking about the gymnasts)
She then demonstrated her rollover, which she also used to imitate the swimmers.

No aunt netty, cuz then the tag will be in the front! (when I thought she had her shorts on backwards)

Me: The Olympics are in China.
Abby: No, I live in Kansas City.
