Sunshine!!!

The snow is almost melted, the sun is coming out.......... man that was a long winter for a family who has spent the last 5 years in snow-free, hot and sunny places.

I like the snow, but I didn't like sliding off the road and taking out a fence along the way, going out in my PJ's to shovel snow in the morning, and this horrid flu season. I did love that my daughter learned how to ski and loves it, kids sledding, how quiet and peaceful early mornings were, how bright the moon-reflected snow made the night, and how much more cozy hot chocolate feels when you sit by a window and watch snow falling softly.

So here is Eddie on his first trip outside walking around. We just put in a new garage door opener, so don't mind the old one in the background. There was so much for him to see, he would only look up for a second, and I kept missing it with the camera.
This is his "BIG BOY" game. We think it's funny that his weight is in the 24% range, and his head is in the 87%. His little arms can't really get around that big head.

These camo pants are my FAVORITE thing in his wardrobe. (thank you Andrea!) Because he is a shorty, they are lasting a long time, he has been wearing them since last fall, and still has room to grow. hehe....poor little dude.
