Can't Wait for the Rain

Lately have had quite a few days like this....

Sunny, at the park, with friends. We love those days. But my kids have been pleading for a rainy day since they got a special package from Nana in the mail.
Today is a gray drizzly wet day and my kids could not be happier.
They have been playing in our wet backyard giggling,
splashing in puddles,
and playing umbrella tag. They finally came in when Jacob's little hands were just too cold.
Thank you for the umbrellas Nana... we love them! (the rainboots and raincoats you gave us earlier came in handy today too).

Everything has an identity

Jacob: "I did my poo-poos in the potty"

Dani: "That makes me happy. That's where your poo-poos belong!"

Jacob: "Yes, it's the poo-poo's home. And the pee-pee's home. And the Throw-up's home. The throw-up's is the kiddos. The pee-pees is the kiddos. And the poo-poo's is the daddy."

...pause...

Jacob: "And the toots is the machine!"

Spring

These pictures are actually almost a month old, but I am really behind. Spring is here, has been for awhile, but we decided to go for a walk on temple grounds on one nice Sunday to see the beginning of Spring. While we were there Jacob asked "Is Jesus going to come down or something?"

I think they were watching for him.
Both of them.
Claire really did not want to leave.
