I get cranky in the stupid Alabama humidity.
It's not so much the stupid humidity as it is the stupid annoying, blood-sucking bugs when combined with the stupid humidity that just so happens to be in Alabama.
So, I was beyond thrilled when we had an awesome weekend of cold weather.
Aaaahhhh...no gnats, no noseeums, no creepy, crawly, buzzing - anything.
It was awesome.
We were all looking awfully rough, so we headed out to a park where we were somewhat certain we wouldn't run into anybody we knew.
We had a great time and along with a lot of help from us, Addie worked really, really hard on her therapy.
Independent stair climbing is still a while off, but we are making good progress!
:)
Time after time, Addie worked so hard climbing the stairs and the reward was well worth it.
I think we can get at least one more year use out of it, but I would rather use it as an excuse to make a trip up north or con my brother into flying south for a visit (with Michigan gear in tow).
Actually, I have three very good reasons to head north - including a stop in Detroit, followed by a trip across the Canadian border, then Pittsburgh....just as soon as Addie stops crying in the car.
Do you guys realize that Addie thinks that Julien hung the moon?
