goodbye winter blues

I'm pretty sure I had my first case of the winter blues this past month. So today I snap out of it - less time on the computer, less TV time for Andrew, more time outside, and no more complaining about everything being wet from the rain. If it snows I'll probably complain because it's March and it needs to be done. And just so nobody (dad) worries, it wasn't horrible - I can just tell that I was in a serious funk and I need to put some effort into fixing it.

Here's a little of our first 'goodbye winter blues' day:

I always forget how much my boys love playing with water. It's a great way to keep them happy & busy while I get something else done.

Notice the bubbles? Andrew told me he needed to turn it on before crossing the street so cars could see him better. :)

Mason has hit the stick-loving stage. He's rarely without one these days.

I let Mason take the trike for a little test ride this morning. He's not quite big enough to reach the pedal at its furthest reach, but he's very close. He didn't care that he couldn't pedal anyway, he loved it.
