70 degrees today--that's crazy

Yes, we were just bundled playing in the snow two days ago and today we rushed home to get outside and enjoy the warm temperature. When I told Preston we were going home to ride bikes, he said " you're the tunnest mom" (we're still working on the F sound). It was so sweet! It was very windy and wet out; however, that didn't stop us from going on a bike ride to the schools. We were at West Lane and saw the Fisher's going on their way to Orchard to play. So, the kids played for awhile. Then, we headed home for dinner. I don't understand our weather but I have enjoyed all the time we've spent outside lately. A funny moment last night..,. Jeff said would someone please take the dog outside ( in the meantime he was cleaning up another one of her accidents) A few second later we hear the front door close and Jeff and I were in the kitchen- we both looked at each other like, did he just do what we think he did...and we just busted out laughing. The boys probably thought we lost it. But I think we have with this dog. So, what had happened was Preston just let her out without her leash which meant she will be running around like crazy for awhile and he did it so matter of factly, like I was just doing what you asked, no one said anything about a leash. He's always so funny, cracking us up all the time with his expressions, the things he says and the funny things he does. This reminds me of.....Austin was giving Preston a lecture about kissing girls the other night. I heard him tell Preston " you can't kiss girls until you get married" I took the chance and stepped in on this conversation and agreed with Austin, "That's right no kissing girls until your married!" They have some cute conversations before they go to bed (since they sleep in the same room now with the bunk beds). Thank goodness, getting them bunk beds about a year ago was such a blessing. For me, I get to put them to bed and not have to stay in there with them until they fall asleep which always led to me falling asleep with them. So, I get to sleep in my bed and for the boys... it's neat for them to lie in bed and talk about the silly things brothers talk about. Sometimes, they share their excitement for the what the next day brings, or something that happened during the day, and then there are the times when I have to tell them to stop telling each other super silly stories because they're in there cracking up instead of winding down ( those stories normally involve some silly word like butt, I don't know why but they find the word itself to be hysterically funny). The joys of boys. I love it and I feel so blessed to have two healthy, happy boys!
