Sunday was a BEAUTIFUL day. Blue sky, birds singing, just a light breeze...... the kind of February day that gets you itching for Spring and it's all you can do not to explode out the door. So, Claire and I headed to the WNC Nature Center for some exploring, otter-watching, and sheep-petting. It seems there are several improvements being made and new exhibits being worked on at our local nature center (like a permanent butterfly house!), and I can't wait to explore them all with Claire as she grows and gets more interested in this beautiful, mysterious world! We met up with some friends and while Claire got her fill of bunny noses and bantam rooster calls, mama got her fill of chatting and grown-up connections... the loveliest kind of outing, indeed.
Monday was quite blustery, and then yesterday was again a BEAUTIFUL day.... I went to a yoga class while Claire hung with papa (I'm actively "putting it on the calendar" and working on cashing in my end of that work trade!) and then babe and I enjoyed a 2 hour hike with another mama and babe close by in Montreat.
Today is already looking to be a lovely day as well, so perhaps the park? Another hike? Soon we'll have to get the bike seat set up and what fun that will be! Our October beach trip was the first and last time Claire went for a bike ride, and surely that helmet will fit a bit better by now.
The forecast is showing much of the same for the next week.... sunny, mid 50s...... I know Winter is not over yet, but that is just making us get out and enjoy this that much more.
