On, on, on, on....

I think spring is just around the corner. It better be!!!!! I don't know if I can handle any more winter. Our snow is melting...not fast enough and we have huge puddles on the sidewalk in front of our house. Rachel came to me yesterday with one boot saying, "On, on, on, on..." She then wanted to wear her coat too; so we went outside. I tucked her pant legs in her boots and we went walking through the water. She loved it. Up on side and then back, splashing all the way. It was so much fun and she ended up tiring herself out and took a three hour afternoon nap! Hurrah! I should utilize this startegy more often!

Last night we got a babysitter and were taken out for dinner by AB Agriculture. What a wonderful evening. We went to Moxies and I had my usual when we go there; Madras Penne. This is penne pasta with curry/apple chutney and pineapple with chicken. Mmmmmmmm! Chris had an apple something pizza...also very good. We shared a white chocolate brownie for dessert. There was lots of laughing and chatting...so good to have adult conversations. Those of you who are mothers know exactly what I am talking about. I didn't look at my watch until 8:15. Thanks to Leah, our friend who was watching Rachel, I didn't have to worry about our little one at all.

This morning Chris is helping a friend at a Farmer's market. He will be there till noon and then we are going to an "I've Outgrown It" sale. Rachel needs some new clothes for the summer and fall, so hopefully we will find what we are looking for.

Enjoy the photos of Rachel in the puddles. She fell a couple times which caused her to cry, but overall, we had fun!!
