Tuesday we put on our outdoor boots and sweatshirts and took a nice long walk. We picked up sticks, threw stones in a half frozen pond {even though it was 60 degrees} and played with our friends underneath a pine tree.
Today was cold. It snowed on and off most of the day, with about an inch of accumulation. I am ready for spring!
The kids are ready for spring as well. They've had a lot of pent up energy and the play room has shown lots of signs of wear and tear at the end of the day.
BIG NEWS!! Dawson has finally started to seperate and go to childwatch at the ymca and the nursery at church. Yes, he cried. But more importantly he got over it. By the time church was over I found him playing very contentedly with the kind lady in the nursery. Then we decided to try the YMCA. We've had three successful drop-offs there, and we've been able to not only start work outs, but complete them as well!
Today I tried to get Dawson to branch out, and read books about something, ANYTHING other than Thomas. So I picked dinosaurs, a perpetual little boy favorite, right? As we are reading today, he started naming the dinosaurs: "Thomas, Percy, James, Henry, Gordon."
{In case you were wondering those are all trains from Thomas.}
I guess the Thomas obsession lives on.
Carter has been begging, pleading with me to see Aunt Pam. "Please, is she coming today? Is today the day?"
"No Carter, not until Sunday." I wonder why he is so obsessed? It's gotta be the donuts.
Ava is my little night owl. Ever since she shared a room with Carter she has always stayed up later than him. It's not unusual for her to be up until 9:30 singing, talking and playing. It's so funny, now that she is not napping she is sleeping in later than anyone else. Today is Thursday, so I let her sleep in. It was close to 8:30 before she got up! Takes after her Daddy!
