Family Pictures

YES! We actually got around to dragging ourselves out for some pictures. I was a little worried we wouldn't get this fit in to the craziness that is our life right now- but we did so I hope you like them. This is last Friday so I was officially 36 weeks in these photos.

...now to get them into the album!

Garden Tuesday - Millipede

I'm thinking you all must believe that I have the buggiest yard ever. I can't help it though, I find these creatures so very interesting. Well, there are some that are just gross, like the pile of slugs I found the other day, no worries I won't show that, but this one is interesting. This guy was in a overgrown shrub that had to be removed. They are normally nocturnal so I guess we disturbed his slumber.  

They are beneficial to the garden so we left him to find a new home.

I'm linking up this post with Garden Tuesday.

Micah's Easter

It was so much fun to see Micah hunt easter eggs- 18 months seems to be a perfect age for this- they get the point of finding them and that there are gifts inside but they are happy to share them, throw them and let others little ones take their eggs without any fuss... which was super cute! 

I wonder what it will be like next year! 

Garden Tuesday - Grasshoppers

Specifically, Eastern Lubber Grasshoppers. We had a hatching back near our vegie garden area. 

It was so interesting to see these little guys crawling up the fence. 

Micah found them very amusing.

He almost decided to touch one.

Then he thought it was better to show them to grampa instead.

 After Jessica did some research we found out that these can be considered pests. 

Oh dear......
