Out

After too many days sick in the house, and more days of yucky cold weather we finally were able to make it OUTSIDE with the kids feeling good and the sunshine out! Last week "they" tore up the old park across the street from us, now that there is an awesome, cool, new big park next to it. We brought out our new t-ball set and some cardboard airplanes. What a good time we had getting fresh air and wishing that Spring would come early.



and then we were back to this: E with an evening fever, needing a popsicle and coolish bath, and up again in the middle of the night. Once the medicine started working at 1am he felt much better and insisted on eating a bowl of cereal.
Yesterday was a heat wave with temperatures getting up to 53, plus blue sky and sunshine. We went to the zoo and had a great time with Seth and Gina. Both kids napped on the way home, and we had a real dinner (which seems to be missing lately for some reason) followed by a dress up party, which the Princess of Purple has been talking about for days!

That picture on the swing is beautiful! What a fun day. We have had a few spring-like days too! Can't wait!

Gabby looks different to me, more grown up all the sudden i think. Love the family swing portrait!

I love your swing picture! Cute! And Elliot does so well on the regular swing!! I still squeeze Lucas into the baby swing. :-) He can't go as high or as fast on the regular one and the few times we've tried it, he has let go and faceplanted in the gravel. So baby swing it is!
