Riding along in my automobile....
We hope you all had a very happy Easter! We had a nice long weekend although it wasn't as warm and sunny as it had been the week before. Grandpa (Mark's dad) decided to come out for a visit. He hasn't been out to see us since he drove our stuff across the country 2 years ago. Has it really been that long?! It was nice to see him and Mark instantly put him to work building a play structure for the boys. This was the weekend that it was going to be built!
Julean, I think the Easter Bunny left this for you!
Hunting for treats in my "fire house"...
Thanks Easter Bunnies for all the goodies!
Kian was very "helpful" bringing all kinds of tools to use and measure and "buzz" with. Once the platform was built he was so excited to go up that he wasn't going to wait for the ladder to be built and decided to climb the fence to get to the top. I'm sure the neighbours are going to be thrilled about that! In his mind it just wasn't going fast enough! Both boys thoroughly enjoy the swing and sandbox and I'm happy I might just be able to get dinner made without the extra help in the kitchen. Way to go dad!
Power tools!
The peanut gallery waiting as patiently as they can for the playground to be finished
Hammering....
and measuring....
We also managed to start getting out vegetables planted in the garden. The carrots, spinach, lettuce, beets, brussel sprouts, radishes, potatoes and beans are in, although I have been told that the beans are too early. We'll see what happens we can always plant more seeds. Can't wait to see them actually growing and being able to harvest them! It is starting to feel like we are accomplishing something.
Julean started eating cereal in the last couple weeks. He loves it! In fact we always get a complaint when we are done and he wants more. I think he wants steak next. His teeth are also on the move. I think there are three that are about to come through and can't wait until that happens. Poor baby! He has been surprisingly well tempered. He is in for a nice surprise at the end of the week when he gets to got for his second set of shots... dad's off so he gets to come for these ones. Mommy doesn't do so well with needles.
Cereal is good!
What do you mean there isn't any more?!
I think that is about it for the moment. Here are a bunch of photos to keep you all updated. Enjoy!
Kian thought that Julean might need to borrow his "E-E-Bob's".
I just had to put this one in!

This is how you walk on the rocks, grandpa!
This tree is big big big and way way up!
