Our little daredevil

Allie's been trying to climb up the slide for a few weeks now, but she's never been able to make it to the top. We've been letting her practice because she only makes it halfway up before she slides back down and we figured it would be months before she was strong enough to reach the top. Well our little girl has a lot of tenacity and some pretty strong leg muscles. Today she made it all the way up! Here are some adorable photos that capture her effort and exuberance.

Let's see what mischief I can get into.

Mommy puts me at the top of the slide, I go down. It's fun, I guess.

And it's even more fun to go down really fast.
Ok, on to better things. Let's practice climbing up the slide.

Still going.

This is where I usually collapse and slide down on my tummy.

Oh my gosh, I've never made it this far!
Keep going, keep going. Almost there.

Holy cow, I'm actually going to make it!
I DID IT!!!
Look Mommy!

Do you dare me to jump through this? I know I can!

This is so much fun, I'm going to play up here every day.
