Wednesday fun

We have had a dull week. Nothing blog worthy. The rest of the week is forecast to be beautiful and a high of 75 for the weekend. This past weekend it was snow and freezing. I did not take any pics of the snow... I had my jammies on when the kids went out and never did have the itch to get the camera out...I was busy dressing and undressing the Treasures in layers of clothes and making them hot cocoa. :)
I am so glad the time changes this weekend. I know its tougher to get up but I really love it when it stays daylight longer in the evenings. I plan on keeping the Treasures VERY busy all weekend so that they will be ready to go to bed and hopefully make the transition easier.
Here are a few pics from today. It wasn't terribly chilly, it warmed up to 60. I am so tired of the girls winter clothes, I can't stand to look at them anymore. I decided we will dress for Spring and it will just have to be Spring. ;)

Jacob told me the text he wanted on this photo. SO sweet... He loves his sister...

This pic is blurry but it is so Caitlyn I wanted to post it. She is hanging from a limb swinging away and so happy...

love the energy of the bright colors. we are tired of our clothes, too - luckily, we can embrace the trend of layering stuff UNDER our tanks and dresses.

we're looking forward to more daylight this weekend as well

have a great week!

Oh - I'm envious. I am praying it warms to 40 and you're going to 75! Just being outside without a winter coat on sounds heavenly!
Thanks for sharing a looks at spring:)

The Tongginator's birthday party is Saturday afternoon. It will either break us or make us in terms of Daylight Savings Time.

Always enjoy seeing pics of your girls.

I think the pictures are so sweet Connie....it jsut makes me so excited to have my three things together too.....and I am so jealous of the weather....I'm afraid we have to dress in our winter clothes at least thru April.....whaaaaaaaa! ;( That's why we always look forward to Maui.....

I love the last picture of her swinging Connie....reminds me of Lottie. It is supposed to be 85 here tomorrow...and I hear ya girl on being tired of winter clothes. We hand our clothes down to our little Allie Boo and most of our are already in a trash bag ready to go to our sweet girl!

How sweet of Jacob to name that picture best friends....he is a so sensitive and such a good brother.

It's been spring here since the beginning of February. I'm actually a bit miffed that we didn't get much winter at all. However, the weather has been beautiful. I just wish we could have gotten more use out of the winter clothes. I guess it's time to go shopping for spring clothes since it will be in the 80's the rest of the week here. :)

great pics. I know the dressing up and undressing layers in the snow but I only had the one. I remember those days from my own childhood too.

These picture have great bright color! Looks like a fun week. I read the trick to having kids adjust to the time change is to be outside Sunday afternoon from about 4-6. it resets their internal clock. i have done it every year with my kids and it works!

I love the pictures. Jacob is growing up on you. I am also looking forward to the time change.

Jacob is always so sweet!!! I can't see either of my boys ever associating "Best Friends" anything with their little sister..at least not yet :)

I've missed your posting this week, these photos are beautiful Connie, and blurry or not, I think my favorite is the one of her swinging; I just love action shots. :-)

Connie,

Amazing pictures! The boldness of the colors jump out at you. Hope you're now enjoying some warm weather.

Hugs!

Now, I thought I had a little daredevil monkey!! I call Mia my monkey because she will jump and swing on anything, but I see Caitlyn loves to do the same. The one where she is upside down - WOW! Cute, cute photos, Connie. And I love that Jacob wanted to write Best Friends on his picture with he and Chloe. It's so wonderful they are not only siblings, but such great friends!
