No fear.

Today was a pretty relaxed day for us.  We played downstairs, played upstairs, slept, played at a playground, played in front of the house, and finally played at the next door neighbor's house.   Well, okay, not all of us had a day like RJ, but Amy, Ryleigh and I did participate in most of the playtime.  We managed to fold in a couple other things such as me going to the uniform shop to pick up some new boots and Amy going to the commissary to get some groceries.  It was an enjoyable day with (mostly) well-behaved kids.

While at the playground I took a few photos with my iPod (so they are not the greatest quality).  Ryleigh keeps proving over and over again that she has no fear.  Today, I watched her climb up these bars about 6 times.  Each time she'd make it to the highest position and then just wait for me to pick her up and put her on the top step.  Never once did she whimper or cry when she couldn't figure out how to go higher.  She's quite the little monkey.

Step One:  Decide to climb the bars vice climbing the steps (too easy!).

Step Two:  Make sure Dad is within sight just in case.

Step Three:  Climb, climb, climb.


Step Four:  Get to a point where my little legs just aren't long enough, and then give a quick glance in Dad's direction.

Step Five:  Patiently wait for Dad to come pick me up and put me on the top step.

Step Six:  Slide down and start all over again.  (Meanwhile, RJ plays underneath and ignores the whole situation)
 No fear.
