Swimming Outside in March?

Brooklyn begged for us to fill her pool in the backyard. She even put on her swimsuit. We insisted that it was TOO COLD (the wind made the temperature outside just above zero even though it "looked" nice outside. She did end up jumping on the trampoline in her swimsuit for awhile to "prove" it was warm enough.

Playing With Paige

Paige has been telling us stories with her coos and gurgles for the past few weeks. She smiles so big and easy! She loves "pat-a-cake" and "my new bicycle" rhymes.

Sunday Dress

I attempted to catch how cute the girls looked today. Unfortunately, I'm not the best photographer. I promise to keep practising and hopefully one day the moment I capture on camera will be an accurate reflection of how cute these two girls really are.

First Time Skating

We decided to take advantage of the free public skating in Medicine Hat. Brooklyn got a real pair of ice skates and Russ attempted to instruct her in the delicate art of moving on ice. The first 15 minutes mostly consisted of Russ picking up a slipping girl, but after a half hour of running up and down the bleachers, Brooklyn was ready to try again. This time she actually was able to stay upright (with a little help of course).

Playtime

Brooklyn was invited to play at a school gym with other children from the Parents As Teachers program. The tunnel is always a favorite.

At home she loves to create with her beads.

Enjoying the Snow

The Snowflakes were so big and fluffy the evening of February 20th, we had to go out to catch some. Brooklyn enjoyed every minute of it!
