Reba & Sticks

Aubrey loves to walk Reba around the block and to the park, Reba is really good on the leash and doesn't pull or run away. Aubs also loves to pick up sticks she finds while walking. Let me just say her obsession with stick pick up has gotten A LOT better recently! Our neighborhood is filled with mature trees so there is not a shortage of sticks around here, in fact its more of a problem, we have TONS of sticks, pine cones, gum balls, etc. She used to be so bad we couldn't even get two houses down from ours because she was picking up every.single.stick. My hands were full, her hands were full, and she would get mad/throw a tantrum that there were sticks she couldn't pick up. She learned how to pick up sticks while doing yard work with Daddy and decided to make it her personal mission to pick up every stick she saw from then on (she gets her perfectionism from Daddy:)  We now have the stick OCD under control and we can enjoy a walk with only that ONE perfect stick in her hand, ha ha!
I just wanted to remember her walking Reba at this stage, here are a few random pictures from today.....



The picture above reminds us of Nate as a toddler, what do you think Mimi?
