What a Month!

...and it's not over yet! B had this past weekend off and were we ever busy! Saturday morning we worked in the yard; B tilled the garden and Bud and I planted cucumber and grean beans in the veggie garden as well as wildflower seeds, marigold, and zinnia seeds in various places throughout the yard. We were invited that evening to Lake MacBride where our friends Kent & Trish live and have a pontoon boat. Bud had never been on a boat before and we are so proud of him, he was a great passenger and fisher boy! Daddy and him caught many pan fish, too. Kent taught Bud how to hold the fish by the mouth and throw it back in the water and him and Daddy even got to drive the boat. It was a very relaxing time and we had fun (esp. Mommy, talking to the other 2 pregnant ladies!). We stayed out late enough to see the stars which Bud always likes to see. We look forward to more boat cruises and fishing this summer!

On Sunday Chris & Ryley visited and brought some gifts for us and the baby. Chris made a bench and painted it with flowers, lady bugs, and butterflies - it's so cute! We have it by the door in the living room and it makes for a nice place for me to get Bud's shoes on in the morning. Bud and Ryley played really well together; Bud liked showing him his toys and they played in the yard a lot. It was again a nice relaxing day for Mommy and Daddy played football that afternoon with some friends. B has to work this weekend but we're hoping the baby comes before then so he can have a week off. It's hard waiting since Bud surprised us 16 days early, but we're surviving and enjoying our time with just Bud.
