Olivia and the Great Outdoors

Over the past couple of weeks, we've started wanting to take Olivia outside. She's taken an extreme liking to dogs, so she likes to be outside and see all the dogs that walk by, or to see the neighbor's dog when she is outside. Of course, there are two dogs at daycare as well, so she likes them a lot. We've already said we don't want a dog because I don't want to walk it in the winter. I'd be more of a "put it o a treadmill" type of owner. Plus, we don't want the dog in the house terribly bad, so we are fine with it, but Olivia sure likes them. There has started to become another issue though. She'll run to the door and will point at the door, and she'll scream if she doesn't get to go outside. She absolutely loves being outside, even if there isn't a puppy out there. And, when you come back inside, it's bad news for sure unless she is hungry or wants to go to bed. So, we have an outdoor lover, and that could make our lives interesting. It's fine in the spring and summer, but fall and winter might be an issue.

Here are some of the fun things we find Olivia into these days.
