My name is Mattie and I love to clean

Sissy's love of "outside" continues! Now that the weather is nice I let her play outside as soon as we get home everyday. We don't even go inside first anymore - and we are both thankful that she doesn't have to throw herself down on the floor in tears by the door because her Mama made her come inside. She also likes to go out and play pretty much right after her breakfast, which we can do on the weekends. It is hilarious to watch this curious, active, busy little bee playing so hard. (Or watching my little Orphan Mattie cleaning the driveway, depending on the day!)

Sissy with her "shoe collection" moved out into the driveway - always the first step in good outdoor playtime.
Wiping up the driveway

Cleaning up some leaves
Dada really should clean this car . . . .
I had to start shutting our driveway gate because she thinks it is hilarious to sprint down the driveway towards the street.
She also really loves to climb steps. She can do it on her own and it makes her very proud.
And as a reward for making it to the top of the stairs, she gets to run over and check out her reflection in the glass :)

What a cute little stinker!!! The "cleaning thing" is still so funny. I am surprised she has continued this for so long. Too bad she won't want to clean at all when she's able to really help you - ha, ha.
