We love to plant flowers

We started getting flowers planted on Sunday. We have a very boring front yard with no curb appeal and I have no green thumb. So I finally got a pot together for the front walk to add some color and cheery-ness to the place and then put some flowers out back and David helped.

He's a little compulsive as doors have to be closed, things have to be put away (I love this!) and he likes to "clean" things. Here he is with the broom sweeping away the potting soil that I was spilling everywhere.

OUTSIDE, Momma, OUTSIDE!!!

It is finally nice enough in the evenings that when we get home we can play outside. Now David wants to do nothing but play outside, in the dirt, wherever. He doesn't have time to eat and he screams bloody murder if we bring him inside. Here are some pictures of my outside lovin' boy.

Either too smart or too cute

Unfortunately I didn't get pictures or video which isn't the best way to start this post. I left work yesterday a little early to beat the traffic and another storm coming through during the evening drive so I got to daycare before David could have his late afternoon snack. When we got home he was hungry so I pulled out the box of bunnies (little graham bunnies like teddy grahams but are preferred by my boy to the bears). David sat on my lap in the chair and I was breaking the bunnies in half and he was taking them out of my hand, no big deal.

I put David down in his favorite spot, the corner in front of the window, next to the end table, slightly behind the chair (a space that is just his) so I could go get him a cup of water. I come back with his water and can't find him and can't find the box of bunnies.

That little stinker! He is sitting on the floor below the window and the box of bunnies is in his lap. He hasn't spilled a single bunny and he's eating them out of the box like a big boy. AND the look on his face was saying that he was very proud of himself!!

He is a very smart boy, he's also a very cute boy so he can flash his dimples and get away with being precocious!

Snow Day

We had a snow day today. I was working from home to avoid the roads but daycare closed early so essentially we were home for a snow day! Here are pics of how we spent our day. Otis loves the snow so he was outside playing in it. Breeze hates the snow and cold and wind and outside in general so she slept under the shelf all day and David watched the snow fall from the window :)

As promised . ..Leprechaun photos!

He's Moody!

Chaz and I were trying to get St. Patrick's Day pictures yesterday so we can get cards made and sent out in time for the big day. Above is David protesting the prospect of posing for pictures. Below is just seconds later, and he looks like he's happily marching through the family room.

I'll do a full picture blog later but don't want to ruin the surprise of some of the pictures. Stay tuned for the McCutie!

For my dad . . .

My dad retired recently so now he has more time on his hands and he has started following this blog. He says he's looking for recent pictures of his grandson so here's for my dad. Two new videos taken today . . .David was more into action today and not ready to pose for still photos. I'm hoping he'll cooperate this weekend so we can get the St. Patrick's Day photos to send to Great Grandpa.
