Well, spring is finally showing itself around here. Yesterday we reached a high of about 45 degrees and we took full advantage!
Nadija and I ran a few errands and washed the car, and then we were off for our first walk of the year.
I bundled her up appropriately, strapped her in the stroller and off we went! It felt so good to be outside with the sun shining and breathing the fresh air. We had quite a few puddles to dodge due to massive amounts of melting snow, but that didn't stop us!
Nadija, clearly enjoying the walk as much as I was, kicked her feet, waved her hands and squealed with joy.
It was a short walk, though, since I couldn't keep mittens on
Nadija's hands. So we just walked around our subdivision and retreated indoors. We didn't let being inside bring our spirits down though, so we cranked up the music and proceeded to dance around our living room.
After a brisk walk in the fresh air and lot of hard playing,
Nadija was pretty worn out. I put her down for a nap, expecting her to wake in an hour. Much to my
surprise, she slept for almost 2.5 hours! She was really worn out!
Though it's expected to drop back down in the 30's this week, we're definitely looking forward to our next walk in the sun and the sweet smell of fresh air!
