Greens & Browns

Last year's dead stuff with the new spring leaves. Yeah, I know - it's just a bunch of twigs, more or less. Humor me.

Big hat, yummy cup

Lilia models dad's hat;
gnaws on red cup.

Hoodie

Is this an expression of bemused distress? Or does he just have big baby cheeks?

Ryan (with sunhat)

Zach's BFF, Ryan, kicks back in his stroller.

Jungle Kitty

Or so Lizzy wishes...

Shades

This was last weekend, back when it nice out, unlike this washout of one.

In other news, I'm now back at work and Zach is doing the daycare thing, as of Wednesday. While, yes, it 's hard leaving him in the care of others, it wasn't quite as bad as I feared. I can only hope he's better entertained with Wendy, Jen, the posse of other kids, Oscar the cat, Max the dog, and the hens (yes, chickens) out in the henhouse than he'd be with me all day.

Spring Pinks

I can't help myself... The first pic is one of my peach trees, though the peaches last year were all pilfered by crafty squirrels.

Baby Buddies

Zach got together with his buds, Lilia and Ryan on Saturday. Aside from the life-stage-defining hour spent hanging out at Isis feeding and changing them (or so it seemed), a lovely drool-filled time was had by all.

Zach takes advantage and flirts while he has her to himself:


He was enjoying Ryan's company, till Ryan started chewing on his head:

Magnolias

Nice weather and signs of spring life are finally here. Yay!

Happy Passover

Zach has got his spring holidays pretty well covered. Lucky for him, he doesn't actually have to eat the matzah this year - well, at least not directly. He just gets to wear it. Here, he listens intently during the seder:


Unfortunately for Josh, he's a bit too little to take over on the 4 questions still.
