Swinging!
Because Avery’s our second (and I feel she sometimes gets overshadowed by her older, louder sister), it’s important to me that we give her a similar experience to Zoe’s baby one. We’re pretty good at doing the same things that we did with Zoe, I think, but it recently occurred to me that we’ve never taken her swinging. (Avery’s been to the playground many times, but she’s usually snuggled up in her stroller, watching Zoe and her friends run around.) Wanting to rectify the situation ASAP, I drove Avery this morning to a nearby park, where I plunked her in her very first outdoor swing and gave her a push. The outcome? Just like her sister before her, she loved it. (And I have a feeling we’ll be back soon!)
