Spring has Sprung.





Ahhhhhhhh.... Spring.
Our forsythia are juuuuuust about to bloom.

Alec took his first ride in our swingset and couldn't decide if he loved it or just wanted to get out and take his morning siesta.

Notice the scratches on his face? Mother of the year here was carrying him on her back yesterday and misjudged how low a tree branch was at Michaela's school and clocked him... right in the face. Yikes. Luckily, he doesn't seem to be holding it against me. (I do think I get extra credit Mom Points for walking down to Michaela's school to pick her up with him on my back. I swear Alec was a Native American baby in a past life... there is nothing he loves more than being in that backpack, like a papoose.)

I love how Jenna copied Michaela's outfit as best she could... pink shirt, rolled up jeans, hat and sandals. I adore that kid.

Who am I kidding? I adore ALL those kids.

Adoration comes in handy when one has to muster the motivation to keep small children alive some days.

I think I'm going to try a backpack this next time around.

Enjoy your forsythia. It always cheers me up because it's the first thing to explode into spring.
