Water Child!

It's Andrew's favorite time of year.  It's finally warm enough to get wet!  It's still early in the season, so we haven't gotten out too much, but he LOVES it!  He's much more capable this year, too.  He's no longer a baby on the outskirts of the splash pad.  He runs right in with the big kids and has a blast!  We hope to start swim lessons with him this summer.

This is a pretty typical sight after an afternoon
of running around in the splash pads.

Strawberry Picking!

Andrew and I went strawberry picking today with some friends.  I wasn't sure how he'd do with it, but he ended up having a blast!  The place we went was organic and pesticide free, so the kids could eat the berries right off the bush.  It was so much fun!  We can't wait until other berries are in season!

Picking a few berries from this side.

A couple more from that side.

Sampling the merchandise.  

Two hands?  Two strawberries for snacking!

His sampling was slowing down the other
berry pickers.

Walking and eating was too much
work, so he made himself comfortable.

He realized that he could kick back,
relax, and grab fresh strawberries right
off the bush!
