Happy Easter!

Happy Easter! After 7 straight days of rain, we actually had a dry and sorta sunny weekend, and were looking forward to the Easter Egg Hunt after church on the church lawn.


Unfortunately, so were about 200 other children, so we settled for stump climbing and picking up dried leaves, as all the eggs were gone before the final hymn was sung.


Good thing I didn't manage to deliver my share of plastic eggs to the church hunt organizers last week... we had quick impromptu egg hunt in the front yard. Turns out, Liam had more fun throwing them down than picking them up.

Wake up playtime

Liam has been waking up and heading straight to his wooden truck for some playtime before breakfast. He rides it forwards and reverse, but seems to most enjoy turning it over and playing with the wheels.
