Yesterday, the kids cut me a few Daffodils. After dinner was cleaned up and the lights turned off, the candlelit Daffodils looked so pretty.

Megan and the Hat
Megan has not been feeling well the last few days. Sunday, the sun was out, it was warm and we went outside. Megan wore a hat to keep the wind out of her ears. You can tell by her eyes that she is not feeling the best, but being outside cheered Megan up and she enjoyed herself very much!
“Who Wears Short Shorts?”
“Who Wears Short Shorts? Megan wears short shorts!”
These short blue denim shorts are compliments of Uncle Scott! Isn’t Megan adorable? Thanks Uncle Scott!
Shades of Maple
We are finished making Maple Syrup and sugar for the year. We made three batches of sugar–over 5 pounds– and more than a gallon of syrup. I can’t say exactly how much, because we ate a lot 😉
Each boiling turned out different colors of Maple treats. The taste is slightly different, but we like them all!
Just for Fun
On Saturday, just for fun, we tried getting some fun six month pictures of Megan. The necklace is compliments of Audrey, who thought her sister needed to look like a girl!
What a Difference Clothes Can Make!
Yesterday, Audrey went to church “looking like Sunshine” as a friend commented. She wore a bright yellow dress with a bright hair bow. When we got home, she changed into her favorite jeans (a bright colorful pair), shirt and took the bow out of her hair. I was amazed at the difference!
Favorites
Here is a picture of some of my favorites (and one of Adrian’s).
- Megan is wearing Adrian’s favorite pair of pj’s for her. Snoopy!
- The purple shirt is old, but my favorite flannel shirt.
- Two pair of my favorite blue eyes.
- One of my favorite smiles.
- My favorite six month old.
- My favorite and best friend ever!
Thank you God for giving me such a wonderful boyfriend, husband and Daddy to my kids.
New Trick
This evening Megan discovered that her feet taste good!
Today’s Smile–Six Months Old
Megan is six months old now! Last night for dinner, Allan dipped his finger in the vinegar and gave it to Megan. Her reaction was wonderful!
At six months, Megan can sit up for a short while. She “talks” a lot. She is heading to bed earlier (no more night owl, Hooray!) but still not until after 10:00. She is trying to roll over, but has not figured out what to do with her arm. Megan also loves to play with siblings, especially during school when they need to finish some work.
Happy half birthday (a day late), Sweetheart!
Birthday Boy
Today is Adrian’s 5th birthday. We keep teasing that he turned three 🙂
He has had a wonderful day! Daddy treated him to breakfast. Megan and I took him to get a giant size shake at the restaurant that he has been asking to go to, he found 5 cents–“just like how old I am”–a complete stranger wanted to make his day extra special and gave him $2.00 and some Skittles, and when we went to pay for the shakes he was given a free birthday shake. He had LOTS of ice cream today, and wants more with his cake!
I am so thankful for Adrian. He is very helpful with Megan. He loves to make me smile. He loves to read and does a good job. He loves “dates” and one on one time. He enjoys talking and asking lots of questions. He also enjoys just sitting next to me and being quiet. He likes to help cook. He is excited to be able to play soccer for the first time this year. He is a wonderful joy!
Happy “third” birthday Adrian! I am so glad that you are my son!
