Sweet boy!

LJ did the sweetest thing at church yesterday. I've been staying in the nursery with him because he kind'a freaks out, and yesterday we were playing with one of those toys that you stick shaped blocks into the appropriate holes. Well, LJ was playing and 2 other kids came over and started fumbling with the blocks (trying to put square ones in the round holes etc.), and a quite somber LJ looked at them and shook his head, then pointed to the correct hole for the shapes they were holding. Then they put the shape in the correct hole and LJ clapped and handed them another shape...It made his mommy smile.

Spring has sprung (achoo!)

Well, spring is definitely on its way, LJ and I have been sneezing, and I've had watery eyes and a sore throat off and on for a couple weeks now. Now that we have the house projects under control (until the next thing breaks), we're trying to get the yard cleaned up. Ahh, the joys of home ownership.

We've all been trying to take advantage of the warmer weather when the opportunity arises. We got LJ a trailer that Gary can pull behind his bike (he [LJ] doesn't like it very much; I bet he'll get used to it, though). Mostly we just play outside in the yard. For LJ's birthday, instead of actual gifts, anyone who insists on getting him a gift, we're going to just take contributions towards a swing set for him. The kid just LOVES to be outside.

Not really anything new going on, I just thought I'd let those of you who check this know that we're still around; just nothing interesting going on.
