Spring is in the air...





The past few days have been gorgeous outside. It's hard to argue with 57 degrees when we have seen this much snow this winter. We are all sick and tired of this gloomy weather, and I think if it snows one more time, Jeff may give the Snow Chief a swift kick... The kids and I were able to take a nice, long walk yesterday and enjoy the beautiful and sunny day. We started with one lap around the block (which would usually take about 15 min Maddy pace) and it proceeded to be walking about 5 blocks for a good hour or so. Maddy had on her purple non-waterproof boots and attempted and succeeded to splash in every puddle imaginable. Needless to say, her feet were sopping wet when we returned home. She did not seem to mind one bit, and she was happy so that was fine with me! Winn was bundled up in his car seat and stroller and enjoyed the outside scenery. Maybe he didn't...how would I know? This was the first time we have been walking outside with Winston, after he was born the snowiest winter began. It is quite exciting to actually see grass outside, and have our 8 inch inch ice covering on the driveway begin to melt. Jeff is outside taking the Christmas decorations down. Often when we pull into the driveway, Maddy proclaims that "daddy take the Christmas decorations down today." So...she should be happy about that:)
Couples bowling tonight, and Gramdpie and Grammie babysitting for the kids, Maddy is very excited about that. She is also excited about eating pizza tonight!!! The little things that excite her.......
