Ever since Matea was little she has loved to be outside, and loved the wind. It doesn't take her breath away or anything, she just gets a big smile and opens her mouth, and usually sticks out her tongue.
For example . . .
Well, we have an allergen removing unit in Eli and Matea's room that I usually keep on level 1 or 2 to help with Matea's suspected allergies. A few weeks ago Eli discovered that putting the machine on 4 puts out A LOT of wind. One night before bedtime Eli wanted to show Matea the wind. She LOVED it! Eli would turn the unit off and then back on to 4 and Matea would squeal when the wind hit her face. Eli would talk in to the unit and his voice would sound funny, another big hit with both of them. And Matea would open her mouth wide and try to catch the air in her mouth. It was so cute! And don't worry, Grandmas and Grandpas, there are no moving parts anywhere near the grates, so even if they stuck their hands through (which they couldn't) they would not be able to touch anything. :) Eli and Matea played in the wind for probably 15 minutes together. It was adorable!
Catching the wind with my mouth!
I love playing in the wind with my brother!
And here's a video, I think . . . I can never get these videos right, but I'm giving it a shot. :)

Beautiful photos of Matea! I remember Eli loved going outside and being outside at the same age. I don't think he stuck his tongue out though!
The video worked! Nice editing, too -- I liked the smooth transition between two different clips around time index 0:36!
(Obviously, I really like the story and pictures of our kids, too.) :-)
