The Glorious Outdoors

We had to take advantage of the sunshine and warmer weather (upper 40's!) last weekend.  So we headed to one of Peter's favorite places- Meadow Farm.  Its actually one of my favorite places too.  I took lots of pics b/c everything looked so pretty in the sunlight.  I thought these chickens were so pretty in black, white and red.  Peter learned to say "rooster" and "cockadoodle doo" b/c the guy put on a good show for us!

Snow is still on the ground... 3 straight weeks, alto I would have guessed 4!

Peeking in at the pigs... love these 3!

I couldn't stop taking pics of the pretty girl!  Jill made this adorable hat for her!


Speaking of the girl, she's started saying "dadadada" this week! And she's just turned so purposefully interactive, trying to make us laugh instead of us making her laugh, putting her arms up, throwing her head back and laughing!

She and Mike have really bonded too!
Guess who she's gazing up at in this pic...
yep, that smile (and sweet little hand) melt my heart!
and i like to hug his neck!

good times!

Mike's been working on Bennett's 1st Birthday present.  Peter tried to lend a hand.  His little walking stance in this one just melts my heart too- is it OK for me to say he's a little hottie, like his Daddy?

got my hat, Daddy!
how can I help?!

Mike's been working a lot in the last week (altho I can't really complain, I've had so much help from the moms plus a fun party last night- pics to come so its really been a good week).  Peter has really been easy lately.  Today was one of the only days lately that he has really had a hard time obeying, said no a lot, did a lot of hand biting (sign of frustration).  Thankfully, we had visitors to be a distraction.  But we did have a little head to head tonight at dinner over vegetable consumption (that is suprising b/c the boy loves his veggies, just not sugar snap peas apparently).  So there had to be some repentance and forgiveness on both of our parts, I was being too strong willed too.  I'm happy for the simplicity of a good read of Baby Dear to make bedtime happy, Peter gave it a big "YE-AH, haha"!  :)

One last farm pic :)!
