2 for 1

we are caring for a friend today.
who said that two kids are easier than one? the little guy is a year, zoom is 16 months - maybe that is the issue - they are too close in age? they play really well together, and that is easier, but lots of diapers, both need highchairs for mealtime (zoom gets to eat on the stool, but climbs down and steals food, flaunting his freedom), and both are too heavy to carry around all the time.
it snowed last night - YIPPIE - so we simply had to go outside and play. i pulled the boys around in the sled and each took their turn at falling out of the sled and into the snow. i was hysterical and out of breath from the workout (which began inside dressing them for the outdoors). i am so glad for the winter lovliness! this is seriously one of the best things about minnesota and i feel like i have been waiting for it since i moved here! SNOW! i love seasons, but can see why one would tire of a long, BROWN winter!

Isn't the snow wonderful?? It is such a visual relief to have it.

I love the name "Zoom" - it is so perfect. Night Swimming hits the perfect list as well.

Excellent. Welcome to the blogosphere!!
