Winter Storm!





We are on storm watch! (This means that it is raining outside.) Today is a rainy day and perfect for cozy, comfy clothes. When the rain let up, Makena wanted to step outside to play in the puddles. We dressed her up in a spring jacket and sent her out. Brody wanted to go so bad and kept banging on the sliding door. It was very cute! Makena had so much fun splashing that after lunch, while the rain had let up, we went for a nature walk. Makena and I walked while Brodes rode in the stroller. We found many treasures in nature, such as pinecones, dark clouds, rocks, a baby snail, a long pointy stick, and a twisty branch. We were out for about 30 minutes which allowed us to get fresh air, splash in puddles, and learn about nature. Earlier this morning Makena and I worked on her fine motor skills with play-doh! It was quite relaxing to roll the doh in our hands and cut it with scissors. She has lots of different things to use with the play-doh which makes it even more fun. :) Have a great weekend everyone!
