Antics and escapades of Locke and Lola, twins in action.

Marching On

It's been a long, long, long, lllaawwwwwnnngg winter, with the possibility of more winter weather to come. But, by gosh, it's SPRING! We actually went to the park yesterday for the first time this year. And there are green leaves and grass peeking out from the newly thawed soil. A family of woodpeckers has made a home in a tree in our backyard. And Lola and Locke are growing like the weeds we're soon to battle in the lawn. Things are looking bright indeed.

But to catch you up on our winter, here are a few highlights:

We took a road trip to Texas over the holidays (much more fun than we ever imagined). Lola and Locke have are still attending playgroup once a week with their bestest buddies. And we're still doing "school" (Mom's Day Out) once a week. They've begun a "creative movement" class (which I believe was begun purely for the parents' entertainment value). Other days are spent at the cool new downtown library, playing with friends, the occasional museum trip, or just playing at home.

Lola is quite the artist, drawing, painting, and cutting her way toward gallery shows. She also loves to dance and shows a little talent in the gymnastics area. Locke is still very much a Thomas fan, but has branched out into trucks, construction machines, and airplanes. Both of the kids love books and are big fans of words and letters. Lola can even write her name now. And, at times, Locke speaks better English than I do.

Here are a few pics from our holidays, with the promise of more pictures and posts soon...

Quick stop at the Clinton library (look close and you can see Locke making a break for it)
