Aubrey The Explorer

Last week...when we could finally see the ground after 2 months....and it was actually 65F outside..... and before it started to snow again...
Aubrey and I went on a walk and she decided that she needed to take along her "oculars"(also known as two toilet paper rolls stapled together with a ribbon attached.... they're the poor man's 'oculars' ). She told me that we were going on an 'adbenture' and were going to discover things. If I could get inside that head of hers for just a minute....
She's obsessed with birds; what they eat, where they sleep and she's so worried about them in the cold. She decided to make a nest for one....
Yup, that'll keep the bird warm;)
I love going on walks with her, it's like living out an episode of Dora. I always have to sing the songs for her, at the appropriate time of course, and I can be heard singing, "Where are we going?!?" at any given time on a walk....to which Aubrey always yells, "YELLOW HOUSE!"....it's how I convince her to go back home:)
