Welcome Spring ...

Photobucket

... we're so happy you've arrived! It has been a very.long.winter. I am not sure if it really was longer and colder than any previous winter that we have experienced in Cincinnati or if it just felt that way since it was the first winter we experienced with children. Sure, the first snowfall was fun and the first few times we bundled the girls up in their thick down coats, hats & mittens we couldn't get over how cute they looked, but that lost its appeal about 2 months ago. We are so ready for spring ... to shed all of the layers and to enjoy some fresh air & sunshine!

The daffodils are starting to bloom, the grass is turning green and we have even had a few days of sunshine & blue skies this past week. Despite persistent head colds (excuse the runny noses in every picture :)) we have seized the opportunity to spend time outdoors. Kenzie & Lexi are loving it! They love playing with their cozy coupe and swinging on the back porch. They love going for walks to the park in their wagon. They love sitting on their new swing in the garden. While this is the second spring that they will experience ... it is the first one that they will truly get to EXPERIENCE. I am so excited for them to witness the trees go from bare and brown to lush and green. To let them smell the flowers and to WALK in the grass (yes, we have 2 walkers now ... although Lexi is still a bit timid). Oh, Spring how I've missed you! I am so excited to introduce you to my girls!
