We haven't really been having much of a winter, and I do not mind one bit. Today was cooler than it has been the past couple of days. Mid 40s, which is still nice in February! The boys and I have been taking advantage of this weather. It can be difficult to work around Luke's nap schedule, but we have been making time to play baseball.
Baseball is Anthony's newest obsession. He could spend the better part of an hour doing nothing but hitting anything he can, with a baseball bat. It took a couple of casualties (unfortunately one of those being the back of poor Lukie-bear's head) before I got with the program and decided to enforce a strict "no baseball bats in the house" policy. All he talks about anymore is going outside to play with his baseball bat. And he can actually hit the ball when i pitch it to him. He is certainly a lefty. I cannot wait to get him in to T-ball! Although, I think you have to be 4 years old to start that. Still a long while away.
Yesterday when we were outside playing, he was looking up and yelling: "Hey!! Where you going?? Hey!! Where you goooooooooing??" I asked him "Who are you talking to?" He looked at me, pointed up, and said very matter-of-factly "The sky!" I looked up, and sure enough the clouds in the sky were moving very very quickly.
It is so interesting how your kids open your eyes to so much. Moving clouds. I have seen them so many times it has become a mundane detail in life. However through the eyes of my 2 year old, is so extraordinary he demands an immediate explanation from the sky itself. I love it.
Anyway, Luke is doing very well too. He has mastered crawling, and is now pulling up to stand. All. The. Time. Anything that he thinks he can pull up on, he does. Well, he tries. He is learning that things with wheels, roll. It's a painful lesson for a 9 month old to learn. He is a trial and error type kid. He has fallen many times already, but he has not given up. When he falls, Anthony even tells him "It's ok Lukie, try again." haha! And he does! Now he pulls up quite easily.
Luke is also getting his first tooth. It will cut through in the next couple of days, I am sure. The past few nights have been pretty rough as far as sleeping goes. Poor thing.
Well, that is about all that is new over in the Johnson house! Super-bowl is Sunday, which is a great excuse to make some buffalo chicken dip! Can't wait!!!

Can't wait to come play baseball with Ant! The clouds in RI move way faster than they do in Idaho, it always makes me wonder whenever I see them going so fast! Missing you guys :)
