Spring in the Middle of Winter

This post was written the week after our big snow storm (mid-January). I forgot to publish. Oops!!!

One week we were sledding and making snow angels and the next week we were enjoying gorgeous 65 degree weather! We took advantage of "spring in the middle of winter" by visiting the nature center. We haven't been in such a long time. I think the last time was right after Lydia was born. The kids loved seeing the animals and being outside in the sun.

The otters, or seals as Jacob calls them, were showing off for us while waiting for feeding time.





When Jacob was a baby he was terrified of this wolf statue. He used to cry every time we walked by it. Lydia, on the other hand, LOVED the "puppy" from the start.









Grandma and Grandaddy headed off on another adventure, but we met them for dinner before they left. Grandaddy's birthday was December 29th, and we hadn't had the chance to celebrate with him yet, so this was a great opportunity to do just that!






Jacob was really excited about the cookie cake we got from Publix!



I love that Jacob and Lydia play together (kind of)! Mostly, she just follows him around while he tells her to do things, but its still really cute. My brothers and I loved playing together and had lots of elaborate games, complete with characters and storylines. I hope our two have the same fun together as they grow up!
