Spring things

Things I loved so much that I took a screen shot:

• It's been consistently beautiful outside for a few weeks now but the last few days we've been able to wear SHORT SLEEVES and SHORTS!!!! When I'm outside, the sun feels warm on my skin and I'm like, "Oh ya! This is what it feels like to be happy!" I forget during those horrible winters :)

• My best friend is having another boy!!!!

• Hungry Runner Girl posted this on her blog and it's so ridiculous but so awesome also.

 

• My cousin, Hannah, is the second Smith grandchild who is smart enough to choose to go to Utah State ;) I'm so excited for her!!!! 

 

• It's my mom's birthday today!!!! My grandma's birthday shoutout was pretty awesome #herhashtagsarealwayshilarious

I told Jack that Nana's birthday was today and he said, "Take a picture of these flowers for Nana." He really loves his Nana :)
 

Before church today - Is it horrible to still dress my three-year-old in a romper? I love it.
 
Soccer was barely better this week :) Jack kicked the ball into the goal two times during practice, played in the dirt for the majority of the game, and then cried the rest saying, "Soccer is too hard! My friends are too big! I want my soccer game to be over!!!" I'm proud of Jack for doing hard things :)

 

 My kids watching the lawn mower :)
 
The key to Jack and David's hearts - bring worms home from your morning run (that was Spencer, not me!!!)

Dirt face in the morning and chocolate face in the afternoon!
 
 
My grandma's instagram comment was the best: "Is this dirt on his face or was he fighting with the groundhog? #survivalofthefittest"

 
We rode bikes back from the park one day this week and Jack randomly yelled to me, "MOM! I don't want another brother. And I don't want a sister. I like just David!!!!" #gladweareonthesamepagefornowbuddy :)
 
I hope one day when I look back on these days in our tiny two bedroom town house (with the tiny kitchen with no storage space and just the one tiny bathroom that is annoyingly on the top floor) that I remember the good stuff -  the bunny chasing and the popsicle eating and the dirt digging in the warm sunshine with my boys - it's so simple and so beautiful. Life is good!
