It's a bird... it's a.... well, it changes.

according to Michael the new decoration in our garden is a cuckoo clock, a bird house or an owl house. I'll let you know when we reach a definitive answer.

the park at Uncle Stephen's place

A new tricycle.

Watch out Tandoi Drive, Maniac Mike is on the loose!
Getting the hang of things...
Ahhh, he does take after his mother. In my day though, when you fell off your bike you hit pricker bushes or the house. Kids these days have it so easy!

Happy Easter

We went to Ohio for Easter and stayed with Uncle Stephen. The Easter Bunny obviously got the change of address Mikey submitted because there were lots of baskets for him!

and when he was cute... he was very cute.

A face that melts your heart... I'm fairly certain I can see his horns poking through though.

a visit with some family

On our drive home from SC, we made the decision to stop to see some of Donald's family. His uncle Steve has been in cardiac rehab for a bit now and we hoped a visit from the bundle of energy would do him good! As a surprise to us, Aunt Patty had contacted Uncle Roddy and Aunt Liz and we all enjoyed some time together and a meal before getting back on the road.

Here's Michael with his great Uncle Roddy, terrific Aunt Liz and wonderful Aunt Patty. I think they were trying to get him to stick around the DC area!
