STICKERS are our new obsession. We are practically going broke buying stickers for these two to put on pieces of paper that ultimately end up in the trash. But they are having fun!
Easter was a blast this year with a Saturday visit to Mimi & Buppy , a Sunday morning swim at the local hotel pool (the Easter bunny even made an appearance there if you can imagine that) and then Easter dinner at Grandma & Grandpa's (with a visit from Aunt Janet & Pierre). Here we are lining up for our morning Easter hunt:
And our most exciting update is that we are finally riding the pricey bikes Mom & Dad bought for us! After months of refusing to even try them out (after begging for them to be bought) - all it took was 5 year old Laurel from down the street to come cruising by on her bike. M&A got sick of chasing her around on foot and decided they may as well learn. Aidan still has the occasional memory lapse when it comes to steering and Maddie needs to get a little less frustrated when she gets "stuck", but all in all a positive experience. Kurt & I even dragged our bikes, that haven't seen the light of day in 5 years, out of the shed.
Despite the new skill, Aidan's favorite activity is still digging in the dirt and just all around being a messy boy:
And lastly, we decided to grow some veggies & fruits ourselves this year. Here are our "city pickers" deck boxes full with tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, carrots & strawberries. Wish us luck in keeping all of the critters out of our bounty. And wish us luck in getting M&A to eat what we grow!
Of course they each had to have their own garden and decorated them so there would be no confusion...
With the recent 80 degree weather, we've got summer on the brain and hopefully we'll remember to bring the camera along on our many adventures!!!
