An Amazing Investment

I'm not going to lie. I may have thought we went a bit over the top with the introduction of the neighborhood's largest play structure in our backyard. Over the past year, my initial thoughts have been repeatedly enforced as more than a handful of children have mistaken our backyard swing set for a city park. However, as the sun begins to shine, and Dad begins to travel, I am beginning to embrace our small scale playground for the wonderful investment that it was. From sandbox, to rock wall, to trapeze bar, the girls are smitten and content in the comfort of their own backyard, which makes the sometimes long afternoons in the Momma's life down right doable! Thank you Dad....as usual Father usually knows best.

All Grown Up

Apparently, our dear little Lilly has been taking lessons on independence from her older sister...and although our mild mannered youngest rarely voices her opinion, she has recently decided that she would like to take full responsibility of self-feeding. While we have always encouraged her to fully develop her pincher grasp, offering finger foods aplenty, silverware is unfortunately a very big part of this new food equation....with her often refusing to eat without a utensil in hand.

While the mother in me knows this self-care should be encouraged, the housekeeper in me is frantically scrubbing sticky floors, scraping dried yogurt off every surface imaginable, folding ridiculously stained clothing and obviously, blogging with pride about her independent little girl!

Owl Hollow

Despite waking up to snowflakes numerous times this week, the Weer Girls cannot be stopped! We have been making afternoon trips with our friend Jonah to visit some of our favorite hiking spots, and burn off some of this pent up winter energy. While we have always loved the fish hatchery, we were extra excited to find something other than fish as a sign that spring is on its way.....A momma Great Horned Owl and her two owlets (yes, that is what they are called, I googled it)! Although us Moms could have stared at the wildlife all day, we were quickly reminded there were sticks to throw and fish to feed.....and we happily obliged to follow the lead of our two trail blazing toddlers!

A Huntin' We Will Go.....

Seems like you just can't have an Easter and little ones with at least two or three egg hunts. Camdyn and her competitive Momma started practicing early, hiding items around the house to hone our scavenger skills for the big Enterprise Egg Extravaganza....and our hard work paid off. Pairing Dad and Lilly as the slower half of Team Weer, we headed to the local baseball diamond with our Friend Jonah to dominate the field of 0-3 year olds! The photographer literally had to keep Camdyn and Jonah at bay as the clock counted down and they sprinted into action.....gathering as many eggs as they could in the literally three minutes it took for the hunting fun to end! Seriously, twenty minutes of waiting for 180 seconds of completely joyous chaos!

All competitive joking aside, both Camdyn and Lilly had a ball hunting eggs, as well as celebrating wonderful times with family and friends. We are truly blessed with all we have been given and hope everyone had a wonderful Easter.
