Early Sunshine

The weather is slowly improving and our whole family thoroughly enjoys it.  We have been spending a lot of time outside and I'm getting better on my balance bike.  I can't wait to ride a real bike and try to race Lily!  My daddy is going out of town for the week and mama and I are going to work on planting our little vegetable gardens.  I love helping around the yard.  This week I helped mow, picked out and planted flowers, and weeded!  We hope you are enjoying this weather as well!

Playing outside at our picnic table.  Lily set up a whole bunch of activities for us!

One day last week we played at Grandma and Papa's place.  Nicholas and I enjoy the swing!

Life is great!

Chillin' in the wagon for a ride

This was a huge Daddy frog that Papa caught for me!

Sorry for the nudity!  Mama couldn't resist!

Spring Break and On...

Hard to believe we are into April already!  Spring break came and went and we had the best time!  We had a student from Lily's school spend the week with us since her parents work and she was so fun!  Every day we had an adventure and played, played, played.  We are looking forward to the summer so we can all be together again! ( I still miss sissy when she is at school)  

In other news, I got my ants in the mail for my ant farm.  I got this for my birthday and sent in for the ants.  It is from Insect Lore and we have done their butterflies, ladybugs, and now the ants.  We all agree they are yucky but they are so fun to watch.  Mama and daddy are just as entertained by it as we are.  Hope you are having a wonderful spring!

Another cool treasure!

Another expedition down to the beach with all kinds of friends!

Playing in the balls with Nick at Jungle Playland, one of our adventures

Creating a masterpiece.  A play bath, a fun addition to a rainy day!!

Playing music with my rocks and sticks

Helping around the house

Putting the ants in

The house at the end of my street is doing all kinds of landscaping and construction.  I had fun watching the huge crane and cement truck this week.

This is how I went to Fred Meyer today, oh my!!

Silly boy!

All the tunnels!

Spring

Happy Easter!  Here are a few pictures of my recent adventures...

Being silly in the woods by Grandma's and Papa's.  We went exploring!

Lily's treasures!

I was pretending to fight off the dinosaurs

Helping mama weed the front little garden

And then I went to help daddy mow!

I had fun playing indoor soccer last week.  I wanted to go lately since Lily has been playing.

Trying to stop the goal

Dying eggs

One of my finished beauties!

Playing hop scotch, oh so fun!

Visiting the Easter Bunny at Bellewood.  We actually didn't get to go hunt for eggs because there were too many people there, but we did get to say hello to the bunny.

And I had to be brave and show Lily that there was nothing to be afraid of

Since we couldn't hunt for eggs at the orchard we did our own little hunt at Grandma's house

I sure liked this little wheel barrow that Joanie brought for her games

Having green eggs and ham for April Fools.  We are having fun with all the jokes today.  So far we have poured cold water on mama in the shower, pretended to have the principal call Lily to tell her spring break was canceled, and many more silly little ones!

The boys!
