Spring has finally sprung in the great frozen tundra. It has been a looooong hard winter, the longest of my life. Seven hard frigid windy months. Yes, worse than Maine, Washington, Montana and Connecticut. Maybe even worse than them combined. But this week we finally have tulips springing up in random places in our yard, the sun is shining and the birds are singing. Maybe too much of that last thing since one of our neighbors is bird crazy. In the way that some unmarried older androgynous women are cat crazy, but in this case we get to participate in the fun. She has no less than 12 birdfeeders in her tiny yard, half of them technically in our yard. But, alas, she is a nice lady and throws the ball for Sadie (who is technically a bird dog!) whenever she wants. Which is a lot. A lot more than I do, anyway.
The kids are growing so fast. Sam is making lots of friends here, even the boy variety:). So she's happy but we don't see much of her, hence no pictures of her in this post. Jack is a learning sponge right now, he says at least two new words every day and has begun combining them into little sentences. Sophie is hilarious and so cute and definitely keeps us on our toes. She's known as the little Shawn Johnson in her gymnastics class, soooo much fun to watch.
We're going to enjoy the next several months here, the parks, the beach and the lake are fantastic and it's so nice to get out. We'll get some pics of those places up soon! Here is a look at an afternoon well spent until then.
