Well...more snow

Greetings once again folks!
Despite the fact the calendar says it is spring, God is using his sense of humor to let us know that it can snow in spring and it is not just a winter thing. Within the last week, we have received about 8 inches of snow. Hopefully it will melt away since the real Opening Day for baseball here in the States is this Monday! And yes, my beloved Tigers open in Detroit on Monday against Kansas City. Justin Verlander is the opening day starting pitcher for the Tigers and I am certain that we will walk away with a win! I am looking forward to an exciting season with a good chance the Tigers will be playing into late October and the World Series. We will see how it works out!

On the home front, Robbie enjoyed his Easter very much. We had a Easter egg hunt on Saturday in the house since there was about 7 inches of snow on the ground and pretty cold as well. So Cindy had hidden several eggs while he took his nap and when he woke up, she guided him around the house to find all the eggs (they were plastic & had candy in them) and he did a really good job too! :) We had also got him some toys to play with since giving him too much candy at h is age would not be a good thing. One of his toys was a very big blue ball! He is able to pick it up pretty well and roll it around the front room as well. Robbie is getting better at letting us know if he wants certain things like juice (which might be a nickname for him in the future!) or if he wants to be held. He has also began throwing temper tantrums and in a sense, they are pretty cute right now. Both Cindy and I kind of laugh whenever he does it because he looks so cute. He tends to stand in one spot and scream while looking at us and clinches his little hands tightly. I know there will be a time when he will not be as cute with his outbursts, but in the meantime, I shall cherish them.
Last night after we had dinner, Cindy went to Robbie's Easter basket and gave him a blue peep. After fiddling with it for a few minutes, Cindy took a small piece and stuck it on the end of his nose! Too bad we did not have the camera ready to take a picture of it. But maybe next time! We had also gone over to my Aunt Mary Jo's house for Easter since that is where my mom is recuperating from her surgery. She was in good spirits and is getting closer to being herself again each day. She is looking forward to going back to her apartment once she gets back to full strength.

Well that is about it for the time being. Hopefully the next time I write, there will be no snow and the it will be warmer than 40 degrees!
