Playing Outside!

To say that Jeremiah likes playing outside is a huge understatement! I mean, HUGE. The kid would live outside if we let him. This entire week has been gorgeous-- sunny, and mid 70s to low 80s.... just perfect. Every day this week Jeremiah has thrown a fit when leaving daycare-- the reason? They were playing outside! And he does not want to do anything except play outside! And if Mommy or Daddy takes him home, they might actually want to go in the house! Can you imagine? As soon as he does get home, he wants to go get the mail and then get out his bike or his shovel or "sumpeen else" and play outside. Also, the guy down the street has a motorcycle, so that is a huge draw as well.

This afternoon it was beautiful once again, so Adam got a bit of yard work done, with the help of his sidekick.



Quit standing around!

While the boss wasn't looking, Jeremiah hopped on his bike and took off!


Go go go! He's still not looking!

Still not quite sure of the pedals, but he's getting pretty good at pushing himself around! Every once in awhile he puts his feet on the pedals and says, "I'm twyeen!"

And we even broke out the sidewalk chalk today, too.

Yep, he totally wrote that all by himself. What can I say? He's smart.

I know how the weather in Iowa can be in March, so I know snow and cold could still happen. BUT, I sure hope it stays nice-- we will have one sad little boy if he can't go play "aside." And I love that my little boy likes to run and play and get dirty and put rocks (and maybe a piece of dog poop or 2) in his dump truck. So we're hoping the nice weather sticks around!

  2. Same story in Michigan at my house!! Every night last week we had a crying or whining boy who doesn't want to come inside even though it's getting dark and the neighborhood kids are all going inside... ;0]
