Remember this? While there is still snow on the ground here the weather is certainly warming up. Between work, travel, and just everyday life I’ve gottten a bit behind on the blog over the last couple of weeks! So we’re just going to travel back in time a bit to when we had a big winter snowfall.
Finn loves going outside to play in the snow and help shovel (shobel) with his daddy. Since our driveway is pretty long Kevin is happy to have a helper 😉 Albeit on this particular day it was right before nap time so he was a bit bleary not to mention suited up pretty well for the cold weather so it was a bit more difficult to move than in an everyday outfit! The first two pics are from our new kitchen window. It’s just so pretty to look into our backyard and see this. I love the amount of trees we have and the large backyard and when the snow falls it looks so serene.
We even brought Lily outside (to be quite honest she was yelping from inside, practically begging to come out). She loved adventuring around the front yard and running super fast through the snow.
We even played a game where Kevin tossed a shovel full of snow on top of Lily, and then Finn wanted daddy to do the same thing to him!
We purchased a basketball hoop for Finn this week – he absolutely loves it! He was shooting so well that I decided to take a video of him. Check this out – he made four shots in a row!
Finn’s verbal skills are getting so good. He is learning new words every day and showing that he understands new concepts too. He often surprises me with what he says. If we ask him to try to say something he is usually game to repeat it – and he is usually quite good! He’s putting 3, 4, or 5 words together at a time, all the time! Some popular ones are “miss you so much daddy”, “love you so much”, “right here mommy”, “that’s enough now, nuff”, “where is daddy at”, “lily (yily) come now”, “lily (yily) that’s nuff” (if she’s drinking a lot of water), “help daddy shobel now outside”. You get the idea 🙂
And here are a few more odds and ends. We now have our pendant lights above the island up! Bubbles, bubbles, and more bubbles. Finn and I did some early Easter painting. And of course we always enjoy donuts around here!
Have a good week!
