My dirt girl!

Meredith has always loved to be in the dirt. She was SO excited when I ripped open the bag of top soil, she came running over, tore off her shoes and literally stood in the bag before helping me unload it and spread it around!!
Fortunately she went to help her Daddy with another project when it came time to plant.......

So I had a wonderful day, topped off with a delicious dinner out with my girls! Since we try to dine out early for Meredith's sake, we often have the advantage of a less crowded restaurant. Such was the case last night, and we used it to our benefit. There was no one sitting directly around us so Meredith was free to roam around the table from lap to lap taking in all of the loving she could get, plus play some games around her high chair. Her big sister was happy to oblige with the lyrics and film footage...
Enjoy!
