Our Busy Little Peanut

So in less than 2 weeks our 'baby' will be 2 years old. Jason and I are AMAZED at how fast time goes when you have kiddos. She is as busy and active as ever.

Her current favorite things are reading(no complaints here), puzzles, her 'boys'(the dogs), and doing anything outside. Oh and the baby chicks(kicks-as she calls them) that we are currently raising in our laundry room. And no, that's not a typ-o.

We adopted 7 baby hens into our family for 5 weeks. We are 3 weeks in, and at 5 weeks old, they'll go live with the neighbor and her other 3 hens. Avary got to name her hen...which she lovingly named Carlos. Nope, we don't know anyone named Carlos, but she seems to give everything that name right now. Jason is starting to wonder!!!

We are eagerly waiting for some warmer weather so that we can get a garden planted. Jason built his 'girls' a potting shed last fall and we are ready and waiting to put it to good use. She loves to be outside and in the dirt, so I hope to get lots of good pictures.

Avary will be a flower girl in Auntie Sheryl's wedding in a little less than a month. Please pray that she makes it down the isle. We're a little nervous, but it should make for good laughs and memories. Again, hopefully we'll get some great pictures.

Happy Easter


Here is a picture of little Miss Avary on a recent trip to Yuen Lui to meet Oliver the Bunny. I don't know who had more fun...her or me. She loves animals (especially those that are smaller than her).
Our Easter was nice and laid back. We went to church, then up to Grandma and Grandpa Lindsay's house for breakfast and an Easter Egg Hunt. She looked for the little plastic eggs that had been filled with change. She liked shaking them and inevitably had to pull them apart...flinging money everywhere. Needless to say it was a fun day.
