Spring is here

Well, that is according to the calendar.  Our Northern Minnesota weather doesn't quite show us that the Spring is here and as a gift to celebrate the first week of Spring we are expecting a big snow storm tonight.  I really hope we don't get dumped on because the snow finally started to melt somewhat.

Anyway, here are our Spring paintings (borrowed from a different blog) and some things that we've been doing since we can't get outside as much as we would all like.  The kids are going totally stir crazy because they are cooped up inside so much and they just want to be able to play outside.  So we really hope this transition will go fast and our Spring will be here soon.

Our new game to practice fine motor skills - it is pretty hard because the tweezers are very flimsy.  You can turn it on and the whole thing turns and shakes but the girls can't quite grab the little pieces then.
