Spring is here!

Spring is in the air! The girls were so excited to wake up one morning and see flowers blooming in our yard. They ran outside, still in pajamas to smell and pick some of our new flowers. Anna's favorite color is yellow, so imagine her delight that they were all yellow!! Needless to say, by the time they were done admiring our new flowers, we had more in vases inside the house, than outside in our yard! We also love that we can now cook out with friends and picnic outside on warm spring evenings. And last but not least, the girls have been loving spring showers!! They could not wait to break out their new umbrellas and rain boots and splash around in the puddles and play in the rain. The biggest surprise of all for us is that our "girly, bug fearing, princess dress wearing girls" LOVE worms!! They found quite a worm collection that they babied and fretted over for quite some time, making sure the worms had everything to make them comfortable and happy in their little "cage" that they designed for them. I cringed every-time they wiggled one of those slimy things in front of me, and I just thought I had at least two years before our little boy would be exposing me to these things!!
