Rain, rain go away!


We've been having an especially wet May this year. April was beautiful, warm and sunny, something very unusual in Minnesota. Normally we see snow in April and temps between 30 and 50 degrees and in May we get sunny skies and warmer temps....not this year!

I'm running out of ideas to keep the girls smiling. Luckily we have plenty of indoor playgrounds in the area so we've visited two of them in less than a week and actually I think we'll be heading there again today! The beauty of them is that once your kid starts running and climbing well they have a blast climbing through tubes, sliding and most have ball pits too. Yesterday while Rasa ran around to every different area screaming with glee, Adia hung out with four little boys her age and smiled and batted her eyes (Good Lord!). She even found a Dad that she wanted to adopt and trailed him around smiling and holding her arms up for him to pick her up - I don't think so! He was nice and friendly so no harm done. Royce was making jokes about how she tried to trade him in.

It doesn't help that we're in the midst of a bedroom remodel so our loft and hallway to the girls room is cluttered with furniture from the other room making it hard to run through. Hopefully we'll be finished up by Friday, just in time for better weather! Fingers crossed!
