Where Did the Cold Weather Come From



Wasn't expecting it to be cold this morning and then to find out that it will only be getting up to about 65 as a high for the next few days was a real surprise.

Riley and I got our early morning routine stuff done and we headed out for a walk at about 9 and it was much colder than I thought. The wind was blowing and even though there were blue skies the sun was behind some clouds. So we walked around the back of a couple of buildings and headed back to the apartment because we were both cold. Will go out again this afternoon and be better prepared. We had long sleeves and pants on but that wasn't enough, guess we will have to put on jackets.

So until nap time we played with blocks and duplos and just had a good time. Riley is getting pretty good at putting together the mega-blocks (really big duplo type blocks). So we build all sorts of things.

After a nap and lunch it was time to brave the fierce weather again. This time we went prepared as you can see in the pictures. It wasn't as cold as the morning but there was still a chill in the air. Guess it will be glove weather tomorrow. Even the ducks didn't want to move but we had to walk by them so they finally went down to the water.

Spent the afternoon reading and playing. The book for today was the Jingle Bells book which means I have to sing and Riley doesn't seem to mind at all because I must have sang it about 20 times.

Got home just in time to start dinner. This weekend I made preparations for most of the meals this week. We had fried rice tonight and the vegetables were all cut up and the rice was already cooked. So I just had to throw them in the wok and it was ready in about 15 minutes and it was very tasty.
