I took Andrea outside with me while I raked the leaves because I thought she might like it. And she definitely did! It took twice as long, but it was so worth it. At first she didn't know exactly what I was doing, but once I had a nice little pile for her it became really fun. I lightly dropped her into the leaves and she started laughing so hard, she loved it. Of course I had to grab the camera and do it a million more times. I think the pictures turned out adorable.
To keep her happy while I was raking more leaves I let her stand in the middle of the leaves and then I'd rake them towards her. Each little rake tossed a few leaves in her directions. She laughed every single time. She thought it was such a fun game. That's the best part about being a mom. You have to think creatively so you can turn every chore into a game and something fun and enjoyable!
Oh how I love this little girl. She's a sleep right now and I get to missing her even after just an hour of not being with her.
