Spring is here...or coming?

We actually don't have a lot to report from this past week.  We had another swim lesson this morning that didn't go quite as well as the first week.  Fortunately I had Jake with me this time so we had two sets of hands to manage Paige.  It also allowed me to capture some good pictures and even some video.  Unfortunately Jake felt that Paige was done after about 10 minutes because she was getting a little fussy.  I didn't feel we needed to get her out early and he was pretty unhappy with my decision to leave her in the water.  So I'm not sure if we'll both continue going together although I could certainly use the extra set of hands.  I've already posted some of the pics from the lesson here on her site.  She really is cute in her little suit!

The last two weekends we've also enjoyed beautiful weather.  It makes a huge difference to be able to get out of the house especially since Paige seems to need more attention these days.  You can also see pictures of our outdoor adventures which included some long walks and her first experience on the swings.  She really seemed to enjoy the swings and today we spent a really long time there enjoying the lovely day.  I'm thinking that as the summer approaches she'll be able to enjoy other things at the local playgrounds...I can't wait!

My mom was also here this week which was a huge help.  Not only did we have her help during the day but we even had an extra special treat when she babysat so we could go out to dinner.  We had a wonderful meal and bottle of wine, enjoying some time outside of the house, just the two of us.  It's only the third dinner we've had out in the past seven months and we really enjoyed it.  So that's about it for now.  I'm guessing there will be more to report over the next few months as I expect her to become more mobile and possibly sprout some teeth.  Not really sure that any of those are good changes, but I guess it comes with the territory. :)
