Summer Begins!

Michael Kirby, Matthew, Huck and I are having a fun summer with mommy staying at home every day! Dad is around working in the garage and hanging out for lunch and afternoon breaks. We traveled to see our friends Lisa and Erik in Portland and MK took his first swing

and he is taking a swim class so he took his first swim on Monday!


Click here for more pictures of the swim class and click here for pictures of our garden with updated photos. We are enjoying early harvests of strawberries, lettuce and radishes. The chickens will be harvested next Sunday and we have our layers in the garage awaiting their home to be built. They will start to produce eggs in about a month. We are looking forward to the Fourth of July, MK's first birthday, the Callam Family visit to Maine in mid July and then our trip to NC at the end of July to visit with the Douglas family. Matthew is biking a lot and I am enjoying a schedule that allows time for MK, Huck and Matthew.

A Good Laugh

Matthew is out of town until Thursday so MK and I are on our own along with Huckleberry. We are having a blast. Tiring as it is, we had lunch with friends, dinner out and snuck in a few naps here and there. I applaud all single parents who do this on a regular basis! Here is a short video of MK cracking up. He is looking at me shake my head with my hair lose, flying back and forth. MK found this particularly funny. Enjoy.

11 months

Happy 11 month Birthday! Click here to see updated photos of MK. Recently his Aunt out in California sent two big boxes of hand-me-down clothes from his older cousin Johnny. They fit perfectly and just in time for summer. We are looking forward to a fun, relaxing summer with mom at home full time and daddy out and about. For those of you asking here is a picture of Matthew's new do.

Morning at the Farm

                                    

              

Michael Kirby and I headed out to the Wolfsneck Farm this morning to meet friends and see farm animals. The two kids loved to see the big animals more from the comfort of our arms then anyway else. Happily, Leah had the right sounds and was able to communicate well with our furry friends. Click on the title "Morning at the Farm" to see all our photos. Happy Sunday!

Fun Pictures

A few fun pictures of MK as he is learning to crawl and eat more fun food. Happy June 1st!

The Big Cut

Last weekend, Matthew, Michael Kirby and I went to a Seadogs game (the local bball team). Before the first pitch, Matthew and I donated our "locks" to an organization that makes wigs for people loosing their hair from cancer treatments. With the recent diagnosis of a close friend, Matthew and I wanted to contribute to the cause. Michael Kirby cheered us on as he did the Seadogs. His first baseball game!
