Our Busy Life...

So... it's the last week of school and I feel like my head is going to explode. I am up to my neck in paperwork, and have barely started my report cards. And here I am... blogging. (OK... so not the best use of my time, but much more enjoyable than report cards...)

Nicholas has had a busy week. It's so funny how things change with the seasons. I swear - everything we do and buy is backyard related these days. Todd bought Nicholas some ear protection to wear so he can ride with him on the tractor. At first, he wouldn't even touch them. Now... he can't get enough of them! It's so funny - he puts them on and runs around yelling, "Hi! Hi! Hi!" at the top of his lungs. And yes... this is a picture of him wearing them during breakfast.


And Nicholas's grandma and grandpa bought him a set of construction trucks- complete with hard hat. Check out those feet! Aaaahhh... boys.


And the biggest new of all - we have a new swingset! Everytime Nicholas looks outside, he points at it and says, "Whoah!" He loves it. It makes me a little nervous because it's really high off the ground. My new focus for the summer is avoiding serous head injury. He is really enjoying it, though, and I guess that's all that matters. Counting the days 'till summer - 3 1/2 to go. I think I can... I think I can... I think I can...
