A Sunday in February

Sunday was a gorgeous day! The lawn was mowed, the first time this year! Then the boys washed the cars! Lon did the hose work!
He has so much fun with the hose, and wearing his fireman raincoat! (Santa brought him that!)
He takes his hose work seriously
Daddy did the washing part!
While the boys were playing with water, I put a coat of sealer on my new gargoyle! I think I will call him Boris. He is now in the backyard, amongst the daffodil ls. I will get a picture of him when they all bloom, in about a week! Really, it is still February!

Welcome to the World, Reyansh!

This afternoon at 2:21pm Reyansh was born! His parents are overjoyed with the cute little boy!
He weighed in at 6 pounds 13 ounces and is 19.5 inches long. We went up to see them at about 7pm
Lon was very excited to meet Reyansh. He told us all that he was going to teach him how to walk, talk, run and everything he knew, and hold his hand while he was teaching him all that.
Momma and Baby!
The Happy Family

Happy Birthday, Byrd!

The Sweetest Thing

On Friday, when we woke up, Lon felt my forehead. He told me that I felt warm, and he would take care of me this morning. He would make me breakfast and bring it to me in bed, then he would do my chores. Lon ran downstairs and pulled out the peanut butter, opened the fridge, got out the jam and made me a peanut butter sandwich. Lon climbed up on the counter and got the plate and brought it up to me. Lon was beaming, he was so proud of himself. Just a little peanut butter, a little jam.
Best. Sandwich. Ever.
