I think I'll go for a walk outside. . .

Maryland weather is kind of finicky. We had been enjoying moderate temperatures of the 70's without much humidity. That was not to last long as humidity found it's way back to Maryland making a 80 degree day unbearable. We tried to make the best of it at the park, but realized later that the sprinklers in the yard would have been more enjoyable.

Rain and unused snow boots helped us decide to go puddle jumping. Strangely, the sidewalks were level enough to prevent many big puddles from forming so we opted for some muddy street puddles in our community's parking lot. When we ran out of puddles, we had to use our imagination to pretend the sidewalk squares were really big puddles of water. I am sure that the people driving by were more than confused to see me and the kids running and jumping onto the sidewalk. To make it even better, our jumps were followed by funny faces we thought we would make if we just got soaked by water.

Love it, Love it! I think when we have kids we should get an automatic pass to act like a 2yr old anytime and anywhere without any questions asked! By the way, Tiago looks like a Fernando clone! Cant wait to have yall here soon. Where are you going to live and when are you coming??

I would have loved to see the puddle jumping. "A little puddle jumping would set me up for life." to quote from a favorite "girl" show. Mia and Tiago get cuter and better with age. What a great family. Love to all
