January was...long. And rough at times. We had so much sickness. We've never had a winter like this- but 2 of our boys have had ear infections TWICE. They've all had a bought with fevers this month. Chase got a migraine. We've all had colds (mine was super brutal- I had no voice for three days- super hard to parent with no voice). Basically, I have been longing for spring like never before.
However, it's always nice in the middle of winter to get outside and really enjoy it! We finally got enough snow, and it magically happened on MLK day so the boys didn't have school. We went sledding! Chase had been begging to go and we finally made it happen! Davis loved it, Hudson was hesitant at first but ended up liking it. Both of the little guys got tired and cold after a half hour. Chase and his friend Jaxson went again and again and again. I think they stayed outside for a full 90 minutes. It was a super wet snow and we all came in soaked, but so happy that we got to enjoy the beautiful weather!
Right at the end of January we had a few really nice days in a row. And by nice I mean 43 degrees and sunshine. It's funny how your standards change. We made the most of them and bundled up and spent as much time outside as possible. The boys love riding bikes and scooters and they need this type of physical activity so much!
So basically, somehow we made it through January. It's not a month I'm sad to leave behind. We made the most of it, but we will be so thankful when Spring comes!
