Spring is here!

The family got hit hard with a stomach virus. But thanks to a low key schedule we bounced back fairly quickly. Caia only has 1 scheduled activity- ballet on Tuesdays. So we don't spend our time rushing around.

Here's what we accomplished in March:

1) Noah turned one. He is so close to walking. And we are grateful for gifts from a few friends and family members of sandbox diggers, a swing, a pulling toy
and hard books.
2) We celebrated Easter. Caia is being read her first chapter book. Mommy blew out a dozen eggs over the course of a few weeks and Daddy made natural dye from purple cabbage and spices. Our nature table and art hanging is revamped for Spring. And the Easter Bunny delivered eggs.
3) Daddy made a sandbox and after researching the safety of sand we loaded it with 500 lbs of sand. And he hung swings in the porch.
4) We set out a new bee home with mason bee cocoons.
5) I finished a total of 100 heavy saturated wheelbarrows full of manure and soil. Made a flower teepee, planted peas, walla walla onions, radishes, sunflowers and tulips etc (with a friend's help). And baby ever bearing strawberries. Kevin planted arugula and 2 types of mescluns.
6) Kevin removed a patch of front lawn.

We are set to plant more and tackle weeds! Bring on Spring!
