Spring
Posted by Rachel
I can’t wait for spring to officially start. This past weekend (even though it rained) and the past 2 days have felt like spring is finally coming. Over the weekend we saw are first robin of the season eating worms out of our backyard. Abby is starting to learn and remember names of birds so we showed her the robin and made sure she learned its name. She already knows cardinal (Grammy’s favorite).
Then tonight Abby got out her bike and she rode it up and down our street for a bit and then we took a walk. Mind you when I say rode I use the term loosely. Abby does peddle, but it is so slow you might as well walk. She is so distracted by the world around her and all its wonders that she doesn’t really ride her bike. I hope she continues to find so much joy in the world around her and in nature. We then got to see our friends from 2 doors down outside. Abby loves playing with their daughters. It is great to start meeting up with people after work to converse about life and kids.
I can’t wait for summer!!!!!
I saw robins too! It’s sunny and beautiful here (Rochester, NY) but it’s supposed to be cold and snowy next week. I saw a yellow crocus blooming at a friend’s house today. I’m ready for spring! Besides the birds, you can teach Abby the names of the flowers.
Yay, sun! Boo, snow! 🙁
OK, flowers…let’s see….I know…. dandelions…. lilacs….. uh….. lily of the valley….. azalea ………………………………………………………………………….. rose ……..
Maybe I should get a book!
I’m still thinking tying a rope to her handlebars would be a good idea! Hahaha! Abby is a sweetheart – way to go on learning the birdies! Is she all better and Zach never caught the bug?
It’s beginning to feel a little bit like spring here, too. This week it may hit 70! Whooo! And then the rain and 40’s will be back…..ugh.

Ha! Yeah, I could pull her behind me for sure! She WALKS faster than she rides! 🙂 (It’s for good reasons, though – she gets so involved in watching the world around her, and I don’t want to discourage that curiosity and wonder.)
I can’t wait, either. Emily got a new bike for Christmas and can’t wait to go out and ride.
