Busy...busy weekend

Well, we are all sunburned. If you know me at all...I normally lather my children several times during our outdoor playtime. Spring snuck up on me and bit us all hard. We were out at the ball field taking pictures for the softball team and then we had practice. Why didn't it dawn on me to put sunscreen on them in the middle of the day? We are all paying for it now. All of us down to Autumn are sunburned...but fortunatly she is only a little bit.

We came home (not knowing we were sunburned at the time) and began working in our backyard. We are putting in a bed of shrubs and a few flowers in our tiny back yard. It is a mess back there now and we are having a late freeze so we didn't end up planting anything so as to not lose any of our plants.

Our dear friends came over with their tiller and helped us till up a good bit of the bed. We didn't realize the yard was still muddy underneath and fortunatly we didn't mess up the tiller...but it sure did turn the back yard into muck.

Chad worked so hard back there getting the beds ready...but we still have a long way to go...we will post pics as we can.

She's walking!!!

Autumn is walking. She started about a week ago...but now she is getting up by herself and just doing it. She is so adorable! It is amazing how no matter how many children you have...you get just as excited as the first time you have seen it. She has also started signing more. Now she is signing-milk, diaper, Daddy, and today she signed more.

I am so blessed to have her...what a great surprise God gave us!
