Did you think we got lost? I don’t know where in the world the past month has gone! I really don’t know! Oh, wait… Swim lessons 3 nights a week, March birthdays, puppy training, school, playing with the boys, dishes, laundry, and sleep. That’s right. Not much extra time left in life right now.
Wild winds kept us inside most of the past week. UGH! The wind was so horrible. During the few times that we did venture out of the house, I thought TanMan was going to blow away! His little newly walking legs were just no match for gusty breezes. We made it though. We even tried to escape to the back side of the house, but that was not really any better. So, on Thursday when we woke up to calmness, we knew it was time to get out! Three boys and a lab needed to get the wiggles and cantankerousness out of their systems.
They were soooo ready. By the time I finally got my shoes on, everyone else was lined up at the door “patiently” waiting. Bikes needed to be ridden. Dump trucks needed to move dirt. T-ball needed practiced. Swings needed occupied. Bird nests needed to be found. Three acres of trees needed explored. Little legs needed to run. Voices needed to be loud. You get the drift.
So we headed out. Tension lessened. Laughter abounded. Boys had a blast! It felt good. I am so glad that we spend much time outside. Imaginations come alive. Moods lighten. It just refreshes everyone.
Hmm… Wonder what they were up to? Looks like they are scheming about something!
TanMan had an absolute blast! He walked those little legs off. He is certainly on the go now. It was just about a week and a half ago that he really started walking much. He had taken a few steps here and there, but had been content to just crawl. Finally he decided that it was time to walk. He already acts like a pro! You know, grass is not exactly level and easy to walk on. Just try to tell him that if you want to!!!! I don’t think he will believe you.
Well… Gotta go catch up with these guys!
A little delayed due to another internet issue! Blah… So much for trying to be productive yesterday!

Good morning! Glad to see an update from you with the great pics of the boys and Nova. Especially loved the one of the three boys walking away from the camera. I have a few really special shots of the kids like that; unposed is often the best.
