Thank Heavens for the SUN!!!!

You know.... for a while I was beginning to wonder if the Sun got lost somewhere over outer Mongolia!!!! I am so excited to say where ever it retreated to..... IT IS BACK!!!! Having a two year old makes you very grateful for the warmth the sun brings. You start counting down the days till you can spend all day running around outside instead of being pent up in a house ravished by construction workers, painters, plumbers, electricians, and of course the best looking Handyman in training I have ever seen. (Yes Dave is refining his tiling skills at the moment!)

I thought I was going to go crazy! But Alas I am still here and proud to report that both Keanon and I still have our wits about us and most importantly he is still in one piece! I will post a few pics of our mess and what we have done to stay out of the cavalry's way!

1) The Duck Pond.

There is a duck pond relatively close to our house and with Keanon's love for farm animals we have visited it almost daily to feed the "qwack qwacks" as he calls them!

2) Hide and Seek.

Some how he got into his toy shelf and thought it would be hilarious to scare me to death when I couldn't find him! Not so funny!!!

3) St. Patty's Day

My sister and one of her friends do a little daycare for their kids a couple of times a week. It just so happened that it was at my sister's house on the 17th. So she invited Keanon, Ethan (the little boy I babysit) and me over for a Leprechaun party. A Leprechaun left his foot prints in her apartment and the kids followed them to find the little pots of gold that the little green man with red hair left. Yes, that is my sister in the giant Leprechaun hat! PS. Yes I am Irish but that doesn't mean I know how to spell leprechaun!

And Finally........

4) The Cow Movie!!!

As I mentioned before, Keanon LOVES farm animals. ESPECIALLY COWS!!!! He is Obsessed! We have Baby Einstien's MacDonalds Farm. He calls it his Cow Movie and wants to watch it a million times a day! It drives me crazy but it does pass the time when you are stuck inside (a nearly gutted house) with a 2 year old BOY!!! All of you out there who have one understand my predicament!
