Warmer Days!!

The days are getting warmer, and we couldn't be more excited!! For 3 days in a row we've spent at least an hour playing outside (Sunday there were snowflakes flying while we were out, but it FELT warmer...)!! Here are some of the twins' favorite things to do.
Play ball. Specifically, throw the ball in the shady are so they have to retrieve them (they are not supposed to go there because the shade has kept it muddy and mushy).
Kick the ball!!

Ryan has been trying for a while to pick up 2 balls at once. The 3rd day he succeeded!
Explore!
Ride our bikes!
(note: they are still riding them "flinstone" style!)

Take a break to re-gather the balls.
Lately, if Allie falls she immediately picks her hands up (and sometimes her feet whic is even more comical), and WILL NOT touch the ground. Here she is trying to get up without using her hands.
She eventually decided it wasn't worth trying, and just picked at leaves and sticks instead.

We are all loving being out in the fresh air, enjoying the sunshine, running around! So great to finally have some nice days!

Thanks for your comment on my blog post Kim. I feel the same way you do-that God wants us to share our ups and downs so that He will be glorified in the end!

Amazing how similiar our stories are-hope you don't mind if I follow along!

When I saw the photo of Ryan resting, I was struck by how much he looks like Lucas. It's so interesting how certain photos/angles bring out each of the parents in little children.

Oh,isn't it great to have winter because then Spring is so exciting and new. I am thinking flowers already! Today is wonderful out there. It just makes one feel good and the twins certainly feel that!! Such fun. Courtney and I are going to our favorite Chinese place for lunch and girl talk this noon. Yay!! Grandma
