Yay! It's cold outside!

The temperature dropped dramatically from our usual mid-90s to mid-60s, sometimes even in the 50s. Initially I had to convince Eddie that it would be okay to put on a jacket. Once he got it on, he fell in love with himself in it (the helicopter on it helps). We opened the door to venture outside. Eddie said, "My hands need something!". Gloves, Eddie. They are called gloves. We got the glove/hat box down, so, of course, Eddie needed a hat, too. We attempted to go outside again and Eddie said, "I need something for my face!". It's 60 degrees outside, and this kid wants a mask! We don't have one, so we had to do without. We took some cute pictures of Eddie and Peter having fun outside in not-hot weather. What a cutie! Pretending to make a mad face-not too convincing.
Yikes! I am scared of this mad face!
Peter hears a bird. Every time he hears or sees a bird, he stretches his arms up and flaps his hands around. He is started to say "bir'" while he flaps, but this is a recent addition to the cute ritual.
Look at that tongue!
Most of the pictures I took of Eddie have his tongue hanging out!

I am pleased to say that Eddie even agreed to wear pants (pants have been an item he has refused to wear for months now, even to church he wears shorts).

Yay for not-hot weather!

These little southern children are wimps :) when it comes to "cold" (60 degrees) We will really be able to bust out our stories of walking in the snow uphill both ways to go sledding. I LOVE that he wanted a face mask! That is hilarious.
