Here are a few pics of what we’ve been up to so far this spring.

Grammy came to visit in April. We had a great time! Here’s us on one of our many walks together.

She watched the boys one morning while Jonathan and I hiked Mt. Si.

The wildlife loves me!

Here’s Silas building one of his marble run creations

Over spring break, Avery and Kieron participated in a UK Elite soccer camp. (They’re in the back in the grey and yellow jackets). They had fun, but I don’t think either of them care too much for soccer!

Heres Silas taking Kieron for a ride. He’s really improved his driving skills. The tires are getting pretty bare though, and he likes to slide into turns, which can be a bit unnerving to watch.

Avery and Kieron working on a book together. Check out that bed head!

The boys watching the trees come down where their new school will be built. I’ve never been so happy to see trees come down!

Avery posing in front of the grounds

My flower child. This boy always makes sure I have a flower!

And this boy… when I snapped this picture, he was saying, “Mommy, look at my penis!”

We had a busy and fun Easter weekend this year. It fell on the weekend following Jonathan’s birthday, so Nana and Auntie Ashleigh came up for a visit. Here are a few shots from the big Easter egg hunt at Centennial Fields.

On Friday, we attended another egg hunt at the Farm School.

And before that, Avery presented his project on the African Crocodile that he’d been preparing all month

We celebrated Jonathan’s birthday

And there were Easter baskets

On Easter morning we had our traditional breakfast, eggs a la goldenrod…

Dyed Easter eggs…

And the Easter bunny even paid us a visit at our house.

It’s a good thing we didn’t spoil Silas with many toys for his birthday. The following week, Amazon had a flash deal on their little Jeeps, and Jonathan couldn’t resist buying one for the boys. I was a little perturbed to hear about the purchase that would soon take up a good deal of real estate in our garage (not to mention, I also find motorized toys lazy and indulgent 🙂 ). However, Jonathan told me he has fond memories of his own little car from boyhood, so I decided to do my best to reserve judgement and see how it went. Well, it has been a blast for all of us! And the the extra bonus – within a few days of the Jeep’s arrival, Silas was pooping on the potty just to ride in it! Genius!
