Animal lover




Scout has turned into such an animal lover! She has loved the dogs for about a month or more now. She reaches out to pet them anytime they come near her. She loves to watch them play and always smiles when they are heading in her direction. She has love riding her pony, Tonto, since she was 3 weeks old. She babbles away now when she is riding, hands either relaxed at her side or playing with Tontos maine. Yesterday she was in her stroller as I took the horses out, one at a time, to have their turn mowing the lawn. She got so excited as each horse came out and I brought it over to say good morning to her. Satinka knows how to give a kiss. I told Tink to give Scout a kiss and Scout immediately opened her mouth (her way of kissing) and put her arms out. She is soooo cute.
She also enjoys any other animal she can find. She enjoys watching the chickens. She goes to the nature center every week to "critter capers". She reaches her little hand out when it is her turn to pet the animal. So far she has met a guinea pig, rabbit, tourtose, turtle and a snake. She loves to watch for birds when we go out hiking, when she hears them she begins to search for where they are. We are so happy we have a little nature girl!!

Party Girl!!



Last week we went to a friends 40th birthday party. Scout demonstrated some of the traits she has received from Daddy! She will eat just about anything!! She enjoyed salmon, egg yolk, fresh mozzarella and cranberry sauce. She also likes to be the life of the party. Even though she was very tired, around 9 pm she stood on the bar and danced to the music. She was so happy we thought her cheeks would explode from smiling. She jumped up and down kicking her feet....that's daddy's girl.
