Sunny February

This is how we roll.

We are getting back into our usual routine now that all the excitement of Jeffrey's Birthday and Valentine's day are over. It seems like the weather has been very sunny this winter, so I am trying to get the kids outside every chance we get. We have had a lot of 'warm' days too that are in the 50's and a lot of flowers are coming up around town, there are crocus already blooming in some sunny warm spots! I love all the bright sunshine we have had lately, we can tell that spring is nearly here - the days are getting longer.

Meredith has has discovered her love of the outdoors, we have reached a stage where it is hard to get her to come back inside again! She has also discovered pinecones, she gathers up all the little ones she can and puts them into the bucket on her tricycle. She showed Jeffrey her gathering spot, and they kids picked about 50 pinecones, until I made them save the rest for another day. The 'gathering' genes run strong in this family.

'Tiny pine cones are the best!'
