We have been taking advantage of the nice weather lately by being outside as often as we can.
Daddy has been trying to teach Owen how to ride his bike without training wheels. Owen is a perfectionist by nature so if he can't do something perfect right off the bat he doesn't want to try. Practice is not in his vocabulary. He was out there for a while with Daddy, but it wasn't without complaining.
Of course the other kiddos wanted to get in on the action with their "bikes"!
Zeke hung out with me from the sidelines!
We are so happy it's pool an Popsicle weather!
Yay for getting to use his new Spiderman towel!
More hanging out by Zeke...really the only thing he can do right now, but he does it really well! He's laying on our new JJ Cole blanket that I got from Babies R Us with a gift card from my Aunt Linda. Love it!!! Thanks Aunt Linda!
It hasn't been all fun and games though...we've been out in the yard working hard as well. We spent quite a bit of time weeding and it looks 100% better. I didn't take before pictures mainly because I don't want to remember it being that bad. We were the trash house of the neighborhood I tell ya. Now Michael is making some changes to our front yard. He's removing these stones we put in a couple summers ago. They aren't really meant to be used like this, but we used them because we had them and Michael was unemployed at the time so we were trying to save money.
Michael ripped them all up and edged the yard and made it look more smooth and curvy rather that straight and square.
Then he put in this plastic edging stuff. Next comes more rock that will be laid all around the yard. Yay for no more exposed dirt aka mud!!!
