the rhododendrons are blooming! and it's rainy, rainy, rainy, with a few intermittent sunny days. i'm not sure about that whole "april showers" rhyme. maybe in our case may showers will bring june flowers... and strawberries, and lettuce and sunshine.
what have we been up to lately?
noah and isla are getting into yard-kayaking. it's a very exciting sport. (aaron traded his coworker a custom cabinet for this kayak. we tried it out last weekend and it's lots of fun!)
aaron hung a swing for isla in the holly tree, and she loves it. (please note our tiny squashes growing in the bed under the tree.)
naked baby cozy in mama's bed!
isla munching a teething biscuit. she is very much enjoying eating food these days. she especially loves to feed herself, and is getting pretty good at the pincer grasp.
isla is trying to figure out how to crawl. she often gets herself into this or a similar position, and can't quite get out of it.
noah got this cool barn for his birthday. thanks, grandma louise, great grandma katie and grandma helen! he loves the pulley thing on the side that takes hay up to the loft. also, vehicles sometimes end up in the loft. (and here i thought i'd snuck in a toy that didn't have to do with cars or trucks...)
two kids in a box. we finally said goodbye to the dishwasher box, but it did provide hours of fun.
noah is a hard worker in the yard. he'll spend a long time digging, loading, dumping and starting over again. he has his sandbox and a designated dirt digging area, and thankfully he is pretty respectful of the plants. let's hope we can say the same for isla!
avocados. i love her eyebrows in this picture!
more swinging!
riding the bus to fairhaven. we've done this a lot lately. noah loves the bus.
silly girl with many toys at grandma's house.

Those sweet faces are so precious! Are you guys coming east this summer at all? It would be fun to kiss those cheeks. I hope you all are well and not too drowned from all the rain!
love from NH,
Caren and crew
