Daddy's Day Home
Soooo...Here is a picture by picture overview of our afternoon. Forgive me, I haven't blogged in awhile, I got a tad picture happy. Not to mention I had so much fun I just couldn't take not putting everything in! Weeeeeee! "That's what you say when you're having fun. You refer to yourself and...some other people." (Blog entry below) PS. That quote is for you Marie!
Get Ready!
Get Set!
GO! Jordyn's first time sledding
She was such a trooper climbing the hill
I know they're thinking they're going to win just because they are boys
Doing it all by herself
Giving me a heart attack
Pretending she was scaling a mountain
Carrying his sled up all by himself
Big brother and baby sister screaming down the hill together
Following him like a baby duckling
They raced each other. I'm pretty sure it was a tie!
My angel
Made a great angel
Chilly the snowman
Predictable self portrait of "us"
Love Note in the Snow
Today I begged Patrick to stay home with us and have a family day. I wanted to do something fun, just the 4 of us that did not include being home. So I decided we would go... SLEDDING!
With a sour face, Patrick loaded the car with the sleds and we headed on out to "our" little hill at the park. I'll tell you what! He didn't have a sour face once he saw how darn excited his babies were sledding down the hill. I think he forgot for a moment how wonderful it was sledding with Connor last year.
This year...Even better! This time it was boys against girls. Jordyn was a riot! Fearless! She allowed me to take her down the hill her first few times, but once she got the hang of it we walked up the hill together, she looked up at me and said, "I DO IT!" After that, there was no going back. The girl was hooked. She was speeding down that hill racing her equally fearless brother and squealing in complete delight.
Patrick and I just stood in complete amazement. They are both growing up so fast, and I feel like I am losing control of how fast it is going. I want to freeze these moments and allow myself to experience them over and over and over again. I have a feeling if this snow sticks for a few more weeks we'll be going again this winter. They,, are a blast, and I can't wait to see them enjoy it again.
