tough cookie

We went to the zoo yesterday with some friends. We go to the zoo a lot. We are members and it is very close to our house. Yesterday was just strictly a trip to the splash park they have there. We didn’t really check out the animals as we had just been there on Sunday. Av LOVES the splash park. She loves the water. She does not have any issues with water at all. She was the first kid soaked yesterday as always. The splash park is nice because there is no standing water like a pool. It is a big pirate ship the squirts water from everywhere. If you are on the blue rubber mat you are going to get wet. It has a couple of slides and she went down those slides about 20 times. All that climbing is so good for Av. As she was going up the steps she was not using the handrails!!!!!!!!! With her low muscle tone steps are harder for her and were impossible without handrails. Not anymore though. She was going right up those steps with no assistance from the handrails. Made me very happy for her and so proud. She is one tough little cookie and she is not letting anything stand in her way.
