Yay for Spring!!

Yesterday was such a fabulous day outside -- amazing what effect the weather has on us all!

We spent the morning outside, enjoying the freedom of being outdoors with a lot less outerwear than we have had to struggle with over the past five months. We decided to tackle the front yard and began raking the yard. My Dad took Maelyn around the block on her trike and she had a blast! We brought activities outside for her and watching her lying on her tummy, colouring us pictures, was a sight that brought a smile to my face. Her ease with the morning activities and the simple pleasure she took in colouring her pictures was another example of how our family has finally settled into a happy routine.

After awhile, Maelyn ventured to the backyard and discovered her much-loved play yard that she obviously missed so dearly -- it was a struggle to get her to come inside after an hour of enjoying her play yard.




Maelyn was 'sleeping' in her play house...hehe!


It was wonderful to spend the entire morning outside -- bring on spring!!

Later in the day Auntie Kara and Uncle Cam came for a visit and we enjoyed one of our favourite meals -- sushi!


Maelyn discovered soy sauce for the first time -- and when we weren't looking, she took the container and drank the rest of the sauce -- ewwww! Maelyn, however, thought it was the best thing ever!


Then it was time to play with Auntie Kara, Uncle Cam and Jake -- what a perfect way to end a fabulous day!
