Today was a nice warm day, 35 degrees! Oskar, Xavier and I spent some time outside playing in the snow. Oskar really wanted to make 4 ball snowman last time but, the snow wouldn’t stick so well. Today we were able to make something quite a bit larger! Xavier hung out inside with Nancy and Mom while Oskar and I did the heavy lifting. We spent much of our time after this just having fun outside in the snow. I did some more shoveling to scrape down more of the driveway and sidewalk and the kids just threw snow at each other, tress, and other snow. It was a nice afternoon.
We concluded today with a trip to the RAC (Rochester Athletic Club) where they have a really cool kids area. Today happened to be the block party and Xavier had a grand time going up the inflatable slide with Oskar. Xavier did really well with following instructions, waiting in line until he was permitted to go up the slide and coming down quickly afterwards. He siad it was a little bit fun and a little bit scary to slide down - but you would have never guessed as he streamed into the line over and over and over and over and over and… Oskar worked on his mini golf game and enjoyed sliding himself. He also had a great time playing on the giant play structure with X. Xavier was so exhausted after today he didn’t even finish his bottle before falling asleep. Pictures from both events (although the RAC photos are terrible) below. (more…)
