Happy Happy Springtime!

Hooray! I took out the stroller today and went for a walk/run. The roads are mostly clear of snow, but there are large puddles that my son loves to go splashing through, and luckily I only got a little stuck once. At least the sun is out and shining. I really need some Vitamin D. "G" loved it so much that he didn't want to come in, but after 2 hours, I was getting kind of tired.

It's been warm enough that my husband cleared off the deck and my kids have been spending every spare moment running around outside. The yard still has three feet of snow, but that's a lot less than a couple weeks ago and it's slowly melting. It's been great. The kids get to play outside (and I can see them from the kitchen window) and I can get some things done in the house while they wear themselves out. Spring sure makes me happy!!

  7. You make me feel guilty. I went out and did a few stretches before the kids' came home! It was cool, but bearable with the sun out!
