Sunny Days
Finally, some sunny days just in time for Easter weekend! We really enjoyed running in the mud, helping the farmers, “hunting” for eggs, and coloring some too!
We joined our friends at Klein Creek Farm for a run through the mud and a fun morning helping the farmers.
I thought it was appropriate that her favorite job was shoveling manure.
We joined “a million” other kids for an Easter egg hunt.
I was really worried that the eggs were too well hidden!
The girl was up for the challenge!
After the hunt, we had fun coloring our own eggs!
A year of music
It’s been over a year since the girl started on the little blue cello. She was such a ham at her first “concert”…loudly proclaiming “thank you, thank you!” Over the past year we have learned “ants”, “flower song”, earned a bow, learned to play “bread” and “cheese”…. you know, all the classics! The girl now plays all of her twinkles, and we are hoping and praying (mommy especially) for a new addition to her repertoire very soon. The girl has finally grown out of her little cello and moved into a slightly bigger cello…still pretty little, though. Here is a year in pictures!

Fossil Hunt
The girl’s Nonnie took us on a terrific adventure while we were in TX! We went on a fossil hunt! We mostly found ammonites. Ammonites are ancient cephalopods (like squid) from 240-65 million years ago. They were free swimming…so we were hunting in a place that was an ocean long ago! Very cool!!! All three of us found fossils, but the girl was the only one to find a “crocodile!” The pictures tell the story of a very fun day and the prize find (by Nonnie).

Spring Break
The girl and her mommy are enjoying some spring weather and fun with family this week. We started with a visit to the neurosurgeon. He’s very happy with her progress and we don’t need to go back for a year! We will follow up with the urologist in June.
We made it to TX on Monday night and the girl has been enjoying her grandparents and cousin (aunt and uncle too) all week!
We are going to take advantage of the beautiful weather and have a picnic today! Can’t wait!
