Speedy Little Reesie


Gpa Beav- Probably shouldn't read this! (Love you!!!)

Yesterday we were at the park watching Kaitlee's soccer practice. The playground at this park has one of the tallest, steepest slides I have ever seen. Sonrisa kept crawling up the stairs to the top of the slide and I just kept bringing her back down to the bottom because it is such a fast slide. Well, after following her up and going back down the stairs about four times I decided to just send her down. She zipped right down to meet her daddy with a HUGE smile.... surprisingly, she actually liked it. Jared took her and set her on the grass about 30 feet from the playground and we looked away to watch Kaitlee in action. Not even a minute later, my little Reesie was laying at the bottom of that slide screaming at the top of her lungs. She had crawled up the many stairs to the top, went down head first and smashed her face right into the wood chips at the bottom of the slide. Are we horrible parents or what!?!! I'm not kidding, this all happened in less than a minute. She only cried for a little bit and was completely over it and ready go again, but a whole day later I still cringe just thinking about it. SO SAD! :( This little baby is an active one... a little dare devil. She is definitely going to keep me busy, that's for sure!

I don't think a day goes by where my girls don't do something when I just turned my back for a second. I think they sense that second of freedom:) Your girls are such cuties!
