May Day

Me and the sweet kiddios on May Day.

Part of me and the sweet kiddios.
Warning do not ride on after eating a picnic lunch. I was tempted to post the pictures of me trying to get up on this thing. Luckily no other families were at the park.
I am all of a sudden feeling horribly old.
Other things of interest in the beginning of May:
Brian ate sushi - and actually enjoyed it.
Grace grew tooth #6 and is walking.
No more YW for me; lots more work for Brian.

Grace with her little flower pot

I am so confused why my mom would ever put me in a flower pot.

Grace with her flower pot at 1 year. The bouncy balls were the only way we could keep her by her pot. She was pretty excited about them as you can tell by the second picture.

Ideas?

Since Grace is year old tomorrow, I need ideas for posing her with her flower pot I put her in as a baby. Her other front tooth is finally growing, I love her crooked smile.

Parade and Prebirthday bash

Jacob and Merry's little preschool had a fiesta parade. Our float was sort of sad so we had a band instead.

The wild maraca player.

Crazy cymbal girl

Cousin Paul came along to be the tambourine player.

The tired parade goers

We also had a prebirthday bash for Gracie this weekend. We made a giant cupcake cake to celebrate.

Gracie was rather confused,

but she warmed up once we gave her a piece of cake.
Another cake to come.

Easter egg hunters

Jacob carefully stepped around my flower to retrieve an egg from the yarrow plant. I am really liking the tan socks with shorts look.
If you look closely, Merry has a bloody nose. Jacob and her collided in the excitement prior to the egg hunt.
Gracie found one egg then happily sucked on the candy inside. After the eggs were brought inside she looted the other hunters baskets.

Lest you thought I forgot sweet baby Grace

Grace in the Indian paintbrush. Can you believe she is going to be 1 at the end of the month? I can hardly believe it myself
