Lovely Weather

The weather was too good to stay inside today! We have all been suffering from a mild case of cabin fever and it felt SO good to get out and enjoy the sunshine and get some fresh air this morning! The boys have been at each other like crazy and Oliver's shrieking is getting harder and harder to listen to each day. Getting outside was our only solution! Fresh air and free play is medicine for the soul, and we all came in a whole lot happier than we left!

I scored an awesome one piece snow suit on the buy & sell site for Ollie and we took it for a test run today. It worked like a charm. After our walk around the block I had to practically drag him back into the house kicking and screaming. We walked right through the house with all our gear on and into the backyard for some more fun!

While the boys jumped and Ollie wandered around the yard exploring the fluffy white stuff, I put on some milk and brown sugar to warm on the stove. The kids love homemade steamers after a morning outside!

Oliver was in his glory, crawling, walking, and touching the snow. All I wanted to do was smooch his big red cheeks and nibble his double chin!

I can't get enough of this boy!

Lunch consisted of Christmas oranges, ham, cheese & crackers. The boys giggled as they drank their steamers and I snapped pictures of their plump, rosy cheeks.

 After cleaning and folding laundry, it was off to parent teacher interviews with the older two. While we waited on Camilla's teacher I snapped a quick picture of her story pinned up on the bulletin board. She loves to write!

 We finished off our evening with dinner at DQ. It was semi-chaotic, but didn't bother us too much. Maybe we're just used to it now. Ha! Everyone finished their burgers, picked at their fries, and devoured their ice cream. The sky was so pretty, I couldn't help but snap a picture. We live in such a beautiful world!
