Outdoor Activities

The rain held off yesterday long enough to allow us an afternoon foray outside.  My main goal was to wear the girls out so they would nap well.  To this end, we packed our outing with:

1) Swinging

2) Cornering our mountain lion/ house cat

3) Kicking deflated soccer balls

4) Keeping “Bubba” (Jim’s mom) company on her porch

5) Watching out for signs of spring

The afternoon was a success on all counts.  The girls had a great time, and they took a nice, long nap afterward.  Actually, they’ve been napping much better than usual lately.  I guess our outings are sufficiently exhausting!  I’m not sure how the time change tonight will impact their sleeping habits.  I imagine it will throw them off for a while, especially when it’s naptime and their bodies are telling them it’s too early to sleep.  I’ll let you know how it goes!

    It seems like they’ve grown in just the week I’ve been gone! Glad they had a good time outdoors. I heard that quite a storm hit your part of the country last night.
    Love to all,
