Snow day in May



Today was a high of 37 degrees!  We actually got snow accumulation on the ground!  Craziness!  This winter just keeps on coming.  I feel bad for the people in Red Wing, MN who got 13 inches of snow today.  At least our snow did not amount to much.  On the way to work I was listening to the radio and heard about some schools that were canceled for the day because of the snow.  That has to be a first.... a snow day in May!  Ha!  Oh well what can you do....mother nature will do what it wants.
 
Had a fun time playing with the kids tonight.  Austin is showing his personality more every day.  He loves to clean.  He is always dragging my broom around the house trying to sweep the floor.  Then he crawls around on his knees and uses his sleeve or whatever else is available to scrub the floor.  He also will stand at the top of the stairs and holler really loud "Da!".  It is so cute....he wants dad to come upstairs.  He has started wanting to feed himself lately.  I will go to spoon feed him and he grabs the spoon or goes in with his hands to eat the food by himself.  It is a big mess.  Tonight he ate a bowl of peas and carrots all by himself with his hands. 

Riley is learning how to get dressed all by himself.  He can put his own shirt and pants on but sometimes they just end up backwards.  He is getting better all the time.  I tell him if he is going to go to school soon he needs to learn how to get dressed all by himself.  He is also working on writing his name.  He is a great helper with Austin.  When we are driving in the car he always shares his toys with him and if he is fussy he always tries to make him laugh and it usually works.  He likes to share his food with him too.  Of course Austin is all about eating.
