Brrrrrrrrrrr

We went to the park this morning and it was FREEZING (and snowing just a little bit)!! I swear this is the only time I've ever been to the park at 11:00 am and it's completely empty. Poor Caleb, I had him in so many layers, it's amazing that he was even able to move! He's a trooper about keeping his hat on but the mittens are another story. Sometimes he's good about them, sometimes he's got no patience for them.
Why is it that we feel the cold so much more as adults? I could have sent him outside in shorts & a t-shirt and I don't think he would have complained. He was just happy to be at the park.

The one above is Caleb on this duck they have at the park. He loves the duck. He covets the duck. It doesn't do anything...you just climb on it and sit, but he has to sit on it when he gets there. Unfortunately, more than one kid has felt the wrath of Caleb because he or she was on the duck when Caleb wanted to be on it.

"Want a hot dog Mommy?"
"Sure, Caleb, I'll take a hot dog."
(He hands me a pretend hot dog and then stands there with his hand out for a minute.)
"Don't eat it yet! You have to pay for it, Mommy!!"

Micah, as usual, slept through the whole outing. I'm not sure he's really even seen the outdoors. He falls asleep before I even get the stroller down the stairs.

Here are some other random photos that we've taken recently...

The one above is Caleb trying to put Micah's sock on. It really bothered him that one of Micah's socks fell off and he actually sat there for a while trying to put a sock on to his foot while Micah was kicking like crazy. Notice how Caleb is holding Micah's foot??
"Stop kicking, Micah! No, Micah, hold your foot still. NO MORE KICKING, MICAH!"
