Swinging

So we got a swingset a few weeks ago. I was very excited, as excited as Cait. I better start at the beginning... One morning I told Caitlin to quit jumping on the couches. We have a trampoline, so I told her to go play outside. She looked up at me and said (with her puppy brown eyes) "but mom, we don't have a swing for me to swing on." So, for family home evening that night, we went to walmart and bought one. So again, we were all excited, especially Mark. He started reading the instructions and the estimated time to build the swingset was 12-15 hours. So Excited! (He is such a good guy, he put it all together on one of his Fridays off.) Any who, to make a long story short, it is a huge day when a parent no longer has to spend hours outside pushing the little ones on the swing.....2 days ago, Caitlin learned how to pump her legs from a dead stop and get going full force. She loves it. It is a new found freedom for her! I think it is much like flying. She loves to go as high as she can. In fact, when I tried to take pictures, she was very upset that she was not going at full swing when I was taking pictures. She kept scowling that she could go higher and I needed to wait. Very cute!!! Here is one of the non scowl pictures I was able to get, even though she wasn't 'super' high'.
