60 Degrees in...January??

It has been glorious today (as I write that, shadows begin to cross the lawn...sigh). We were well-wrapped and at Pebble Playground by 8:30--three hours after Cody began asking when we could go. (The pre-dawn rendition (extra loud) of "Must Be Santa Claus" began around 5:10 today, so I could understand his impatience.)

We took a short break for lunch at 11:00, divested the heavy jackets, and wagon-walked to the school playground, where we stayed until (gasp!) 1:00--an hour past nap time, but it was so beautiful I wanted to take advantage of the weather. Cody is currently obsessed with monkey bars, all of which are too high for him unless I support him (read: carry him) while he passes from one bar to the next. It turns out--are you surprised?--that Bailey is "really good at the monkey bars."

We left when Cordelia fell over, while just standing still, and then cried out, "Bed! Please! Go in your bed?"

Some days it's great just to run them ragged!

Update, Monday, 1/9 at 12:50 p.m.: I'm glad I took them out when I did...because I just looked out the window and snow is falling out of the sky!
