kids

Here is a better smiling Nikolas picture.  He actually smiles quite a lot these days.  We started back to school this week and he is having to learn to be put down.  He's not fond of it, but he was much better Tuesday than he was Monday, let's hope that trend continues.
He noticed his socks and started trying to get them, mismatching though they might be.
Saturday it was really warm here, like mid 50's I think.  We didn't realize it until it was too late to get much play time in, but the kids did get to go out for a few minutes.  This was Kole's first time being outside and not in his carseat all covered up.

Since we were outside, there were trees to be climbed.

The most fun part of climbing trees, the dismount.

And the landing, well, almost the landing, the end of the landing was falling pretty much flat, but he did jump right back up

Ari doesn't climb trees yet, but she sure had fun running around enjoying being out of the house
