Real Girls Mow Lawns






To celebrate Labor Day, we trained for our triathlon with a 20 mile bike ride followed by a 6 mile run. Then I canned tomatoes and made salsa with Lisa Sommerfeldt while Bruce, Scott, and John prepared the roof of the shed for shingles. Bruce did some studying, and Hailey napped, ate, and played outside. While we were outside she discovered the toy car. She can open and close the doors and can push the whole car by pushing the door. She is so proud of herself when she pushes it.
She also discovered another toy: a lawn mower. It wasn't weighted so it would tip over, but she could push it when she was holding on to something else. It was pretty cute! Hailey and I both mow lawn- I mow real ones, she mows fake ones because after all, Real Girls Mow Lawns!

She is sooo adorable with that car. I can't believe she is walking already. You are amazing: training for a triathalon and canning salsa.
