Weathering the Winter

When the desperation of cabin fever sets in, anything, ANYTHING, becomes a welcome respite for the littles.

Case in point:




That is, indeed, a fake candle. And yes, Kateri and Charlotte are both doing their best to "blow" it out.

Somehow this became a very exciting and competitive game for the two of them.



And eventually, for the safety and sanity of all, we had to call it quits,




But it was fun while it lasted!

As was Kateri's fancy hair-do.

 

A few weeks ago, we went to the park.

The main thing to see there, in Kateri's eyes, is the swing set. She is content to stay on it the entire time and swing to her hearts content. She has no desire to go down the slide or play on the "fire man's truck". In fact, she can only be convinced to get off the swing with great effort and much encouragement!

This picture cracks me up because her legs look soooooo long!


This was also the occasion of Sebastian's first time in the swing!


That, my friends, is some hearty approval!


It does seem rather wild that BOTH of them are able to swing! I feel that Sebastian is still my little baby, but he is growing so so quickly.



Nevertheless, he is still a baby for sure!

Another time, Aunt Laura introduced Kateri to her new favorite game:


Ring around the Rosy will NEVER grow old, in a 1 and 2 year old's eyes!

  1. How fun! This post reminds me of a quote I recently came across in a book(Thirsting for Prayer): "G.K.Chesterton argued that repetition is a characteristic of the vitality of children, who like the same stories, with the same words, time and time again, not because they are bored and unimaginative but because they delight in life." :)
