It's beginning to look a lot like...

Spring!

I love the spring. And this winter felt very long. It has been good to open the windows and doors and air out my house. I love to get outside and I am figuring out what I will plant this year. I love to watch spring sprout and grow and blossom. Here are a few pictures of early spring!

More friends

I watched a friends little boy this morning for a few hours and learned a few things.

1. At two a shopping cart that is just your size is lots of fun. And worth fighting over.

2. So are cell phones. Plastic ones that play music, bonus.
3. Third children learn to share MUCH sooner than only/oldest children.
We had lots of fun playing. Even with the occasional frustrated cry of MINE!!!

Sleeping with Daddy

Today I put Stella down for a nap, but I knew it wouldn't last. (sigh) She was crying as soon as the door was closed. Shortly after that she calmed down, and Sid got home. Then her door slammed closed and she started to cry. It wasn't a pain cry so I was going to let her cry for a few minutes. Daddy has a harder time with that and decided to go check on her. "I'll make her stay up there," he said 20 minuted later it was silent. And Sid still hadn't reappeared. I thought I'd go check on them. I grabbed my camera before I headed up the steps, expecting them to be asleep on her bed. They weren't. So I checked my bed, not there either. So I looked closer into Stella's room and this is what I found:

Too Cute. Both of them out cold on the recliner. I love my family!

Friends

It's so cute to watch Stella develop friendships. Especially with my friends kids. Here she is with Taylor. They really got along well.


Most of the time. Two two year-old first children are bound to head-butt every now and then!
